Sounds like IFD is not allowed on FlakeHub (#69). Was IFD added somewhere since the last successful action run?

[ipetkov]

Probably, though if that's the case the UX around this type of error is sorely lacking. Flakes enable IFD by default, I shouldn't have to dig through a huge error trace and then this here issue log to find out that's the case (perhaps the publish should gracefully fallback to not populating the flake's outputs)
