boop-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. | 11:08:50 |

raitobezarius | this will only uninstall the nix software | 11:11:34 |
raitobezarius | not necessarily the nix store i believe | 11:11:37 |
boop-north | 1028 (nix-user), 59 (nix-default)
I wont lose these? | 11:13:13 |
raitobezarius | you'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 yes | 11:14:02 |
boop-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 |
boop-north | If i can get a list of all my packages I can wait for everything to install again | 11:14:26 |
raitobezarius | yes, the inventories are incompatible | 11:14:38 |
raitobezarius | if you use nix profile, you cannot use nix-env anymore etc. | 11:14:44 |
raitobezarius | i don't like this problem, i may solve it on a whim in 2.96 | 11:14:52 |
boop-north | but is my stuff still installed there? | 11:15:05 |
raitobezarius | there's a file somewhere you can access i believe in /nix/var/nix/profiles | 11:15:04 |
boop-north | Nix profile list doesnt list them correct? | 11:15:26 |
raitobezarius | yes, it is still installed | 11:15:33 |
raitobezarius | it won't list them | 11:16:24 |
boop-north | is it "default" it links to /nix/var/nix/profiles/per-user/root/profile | 11:17:05 |
boop-north | * is it in "default" it links to /nix/var/nix/profiles/per-user/root/profile | 11:17:28 |
raitobezarius | it's the right directory yes | 11:17:34 |
raitobezarius | there should be a manifest.nix or a manifest.json | 11:17:41 |
raitobezarius | manifest.nix for nix-env style environments | 11:17:45 |
raitobezarius | manifest.json for nix profile style environments | 11:17:53 |
boop-north | only thing listed there other then lix is cacerts lol | 11:20:09 |
boop-north | I guess I converted | 11:20:13 |
raitobezarius | there's also user profiles | 11:20:35 |
boop-north | per-user folder? | 11:21:34 |
raitobezarius | yes | 11:21:47 |
boop-north | profile profile-1-link profile-2-link profile-3-link profile-4-link profile-5-link profile-6-link profile-7-link profile-8-link. are these past versions or something else | 11:23:26 |
raitobezarius | yes | 11:23:58 |
boop-north | all of them are literally just "nss-cacert" | 11:25:34 |
