Arguably, this is a bug in Nix's structuredAttrs: without structuredAttrs, exportReferencesGraph with an empty path set would still result in information being provided. With structuredAttrs, no info is provided for an empty path set. Nevertheless, we need to be able to build even if Nix has the bug, so work around it by checking for an empty path set and handling it explicitly.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
After chatting in private with Linus we identified the issue: my patch dropped the builder instead of a buildCommand where stdenv is sourced. This also means that there's a set -o pipefail (the problematic command is the one for $out/registration) that makes the jq|head fail loud there.
That means the the solution in here is correct. THere's one comment (and the explanation in the commit should also be updated) then this is good to go.
That said, I think the Nix behavior is correct here: closure: [] exists in .attrs.json which seems correct to me.

cc @Ma27, this was broken in c8f5c30 and causes e.g. the iso build to fail: https://hydra.nixos.org/build/239890672
