+prs: 10200
+---
+
+`nix eval` will now print derivations as their `.drv` paths, rather than as
+attribute sets. This makes commands like `nix eval nixpkgs#bash` terminate
+instead of infinitely looping into recursive self-referential attributes:
+
+```ShellSession
+$ nix eval nixpkgs#bash
+«derivation /nix/store/m32cbgbd598f4w299g0hwyv7gbw6rqcg-bash-5.2p26.drv»
+```
