 Sofie 🏳️⚧️ (she/her) | Does someone have a example configuration repository with:
- disko
- agenix
- unattended install
- LUKS
- and maybe even hive?
I want to rework my current repository which uses flakes and which is kinda all over the place, I heard hive is good and well, since I am doing this I should also use npins?

| Sofie 🏳️⚧️ (she/her) | I dont have the time currently to fiddle with Nix so I would be greatful for a configuration example | 14:01:00 |

| Sofie 🏳️⚧️ (she/her) | 👍 | 15:40:37 |
 Erin · she/her · 🏳️⚧️🏳️🌈 | I thought of using impermanence but not sure how good idea would it be for desktop, also considering i almost never reboot | 15:48:10 |

 Linux Hackerman | I'm currently getting FAILED ../tests/functional2/build/test_xattrs.py::test_xattrs_during_build[files0] when building lix from main (7d76467) on macos, is that missing a skip? | 20:15:57 |
 just1602 | Are you running the latest commit, because I think the skip were added already? | 20:16:55 |
 raitobezarius | it should be a skipif I think yeah | 20:21:08 |
 Arian | Is there some way to have a pkgs.closureInfo that adds a drv as if you had done a substitution? Now if you ad a drv path it adds the entire build-time closure | 20:57:24 |
| Arian | Basically; can I in nix create a disk image that has a nix store that looks like it did a nix-instantiate && nix-store--realize where it substituted everything | 20:57:53 |

 DolceTriade | Hello, I'm hitting an assert in Lix and I'm not entirely sure how to debug further...
nix-daemon: lix/libstore/build/derivation-goal.cc:326: kj::Promise<Result<Goal::WorkResult>> nix::DerivationGoal::outputsSubstitutionTried(): Assertion `false' failed.
I'm running nix develop --impure on our codebase and I see output like this:

nix (Lix, like Nix) 2.94.0
| 18:22:48 |
| raitobezarius | do you have a flake reference to reproduce it? | 18:27:37 |
| DolceTriade | No, I haven't tried to create a minimal repro yet because I didn't understand why this is happening so if I were to try, it would be a random guess, so i was hoping for more insight on where to direct my attention, but if that's the first step, I can try. | 18:29:31 |
 K900 | Core dump would be nice | 18:29:56 |
| K900 | Or a backtrace at least | 18:30:01 |
| DolceTriade | Yeah, I was surprised I didn't see a coredump in systemd | 18:30:55 |
| DolceTriade | I guess since the nix-daemon is crashing, I probably have to edit the systemd file to set the ulimits to allow for core generation? | 18:41:07 |
| DolceTriade | I guess I managed to get it to load by commenting out parts of my flake and adding them back line by line until it built 🤷 | 19:13:59 |
