 iqubic (she/her) | So, I'm trying to update my system and I'm getting this warning:
trace: warning: This Lix NixOS module is being built against a Lix with a
major version (got 2.95.0-pre20251121-dev_b707403) other than the one the
module was designed for (expecting 2.94). Some downstream
packages like nix-eval-jobs may be broken by this. Consider using a
matching version of the Lix NixOS module to the version of Lix you are
using.
My configs are shown here: https://github.com/IQubic/nixos-config/blob/main/flake.nix#L7
| 21:43:35 |
| iqubic (she/her) | How can I fix this? | 21:43:39 |
| iqubic (she/her) | I also have modules = [ inputs.lix-module.nixosModules.default ] in my config a bit further down. | 21:44:34 |
 just1602 | If you're not using lix on main, you should probably switch away from the module to nix.package = lixPackageSets.latest.lix in your config | 21:47:19 |
| just1602 | If you're running main, nix flake update or whatever you use to pin / update your inputs should do the job. | 21:47:43 |
| iqubic (she/her) | I am using Lix on main. | 21:48:00 |
| iqubic (she/her) | I think... | 21:48:04 |
| iqubic (she/her) | What does that actually mean? | 21:48:08 |
| just1602 | You build the latest commit when you update your system? | 21:48:21 |
| just1602 | * You build the latest commit of the main branch when you update your system? | 21:48:28 |
| iqubic (she/her) | I do, yeah. | 21:48:29 |
| just1602 | Then just doing nix flake update should do it, jade merge my PR where I update the module on main to fix this warning. | 21:50:09 |
| iqubic (she/her) | Running nix flake update seems to have fixed my issues! Thanks! | 21:50:11 |

 Sofie 🏳️⚧️ (she/her) | with nix-portable, I run to this error constantly? It only resolves with removing that SQLite db and rerunning the command. It works for that and after that, it brakes again.

 jlc | Anyone know the correct way to have filechoosers (dolphin in my case) have the ability to see/use mimetypes?
I have a a lot of mimetypes working in my app-launcher a-ok after setting them in my home.nix, but if I spawn a filebrowser and say, try to open a .txt file, instead of immediately going to my editor, my chooser asks me what to use each time, and doesn't have any kind of persistent memory for what associations I'd made before.
Should I use xdg.mimeApps.defaultApplicationPackages and specify dolphin as a package?

 K900 | This should work out of the box, unless you're doing HM things | 18:11:49 |
| jlc | i am indeed doing H-M things. | 18:12:00 |
| K900 | Then you can't have both declarative and imperative mimetypes like that | 18:12:15 |
| jlc | Heard. Imperative will work fine for me - Best then to remove the associations in my home.nix, switch and then reboot?
I'll mention also that my filechooser was having this issue before I specified the mimetypes in the last hour, too. | 18:13:35 |
| K900 | Yes, remove everything in xdg.mimeTypes | 18:14:15 |
| K900 | And if you're using impermanence, make sure to persist ~/.local/share/mime or whatever the path is | 18:14:27 |
| jlc | I'm pretty new - could you say more on how to do this? | 18:14:45 |
| K900 | Are you using impermanence? | 18:15:29 |
