@nxrth:beeper.comboop-north 0: Unable to parse existing receipt /nix/receipt.json, it may be from an incompatible version of nix-installer or lix-installer. Try running /nix/nix-installer uninstall, then installing again.
1: missing field action_name at line 13 column 7

I assume this will nuke everything and ill have to install everything again.

@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusthis will only uninstall the nix software11:11:34
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusnot necessarily the nix store i believe11:11:37
@nxrth:beeper.comboop-north 1028 (nix-user), 59 (nix-default)

I wont lose these?
11:13:13
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusyou'd have to check the docs as the installer is not really my specialty but i'd imagine it would keep the /nix/store and therefore these things yes11:14:02
@nxrth:beeper.comboop-north also I am not sure before I started installing stuff with nix profile install nixpkgs#foobar I used nix-env and I cant do nix-env --query anymore 11:14:07
@nxrth:beeper.comboop-northIf i can get a list of all my packages I can wait for everything to install again11:14:26
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusyes, the inventories are incompatible11:14:38
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusif you use nix profile, you cannot use nix-env anymore etc.11:14:44
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusi don't like this problem, i may solve it on a whim in 2.9611:14:52
@nxrth:beeper.comboop-north but is my stuff still installed there? 11:15:05
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusthere's a file somewhere you can access i believe in /nix/var/nix/profiles11:15:04
@nxrth:beeper.comboop-north Nix profile list doesnt list them correct? 11:15:26
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusyes, it is still installed11:15:33
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusit won't list them11:16:24
@nxrth:beeper.comboop-north is it "default" it links to /nix/var/nix/profiles/per-user/root/profile 11:17:05
@nxrth:beeper.comboop-north* is it in "default" it links to /nix/var/nix/profiles/per-user/root/profile11:17:28
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusit's the right directory yes11:17:34
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusthere should be a manifest.nix or a manifest.json11:17:41
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusmanifest.nix for nix-env style environments11:17:45
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusmanifest.json for nix profile style environments11:17:53
@nxrth:beeper.comboop-northonly thing listed there other then lix is cacerts lol11:20:09
@nxrth:beeper.comboop-northI guess I converted11:20:13
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusthere's also user profiles11:20:35
@nxrth:beeper.comboop-north per-user folder? 11:21:34
