Sofie 🏳️⚧️ (she/her) | works but build errors with a very weird error?
error:

Sofie 🏳️⚧️ (she/her) | ah | 14:13:43 |
Sofie 🏳️⚧️ (she/her) | hmm | 14:13:45 |
Sofie 🏳️⚧️ (she/her) | ah | 14:14:26 |
Sofie 🏳️⚧️ (she/her) | I just guess I needed to add
mkdir -p $out/share/signal-desktop
``

| 14:14:40 |
Sofie 🏳️⚧️ (she/her) | anyways, figured it out | 14:14:52 |
jlc | If I try Dolphin again I'll be sure to! Thunar is working as expected, apart from being in light mode | 16:40:43 |

Sofie 🏳️⚧️ (she/her) | when building Firefox | 16:50:22 |
hexa | heh | 16:51:33 |
hexa | why would you want a wasi32-wasi lix package? | 16:51:41 |
hexa | firefox doesn't want that | 16:51:48 |

Sofie 🏳️⚧️ (she/her) | does that? | 17:17:25 |

Sofie 🏳️⚧️ (she/her) | why did I even do that | 17:24:51 |
Sofie 🏳️⚧️ (she/her) | to begin with | 17:24:54 |
Sofie 🏳️⚧️ (she/her) | anyways | 17:24:56 |
Sofie 🏳️⚧️ (she/her) | fixed now | 17:24:57 |
Sofie 🏳️⚧️ (she/her) | we need an wasm build of lix!!!! /s | 17:25:08 |
tebriel | when should I be using the other packages aside from lix in lixPackageSets? I'm unclear why they're in that namespace (maybe to give lix its expected verisons?) | 17:33:08 |
whispers (it/fae) | if you use one of the packages in the set, then you want to use the lixPackageSets version. all it does is give the lix version of that package, which is sometimes just overriding the nix version to be lix nstead of cppnix and sometimes a full fork (as in the case of nix-eval-jobs) | 17:44:36 |
whispers (it/fae) | the "advanced change" section on this page shows how to globally overlay them if you want to do that, but you can also just use them directly https://lix.systems/add-to-config/ | 17:45:25 |
