-!!! warning
-
-    Do not put Nix store paths into global/pipeline variables. They will simply be passed through,
-    resulting in bad portability (if two runners have different archs for example, one cannot find the path).
-    If you need any Nix store path in env variables, always do it on the job level, there
-    it will automatically be computed at runtime, thus will always work no matter which runner it runs on.
