|  Izdihar joined the room. | 02:48:04 |
| Izdihar | hello, right now im having the same problem as https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/124308, should I nixos-rebuild now that it's been solved? https://nixpk.gs/pr-tracker.html?pr=126147 | 02:58:49 |
| Izdihar | I mean I dont really know how nixos rebuild works, i mean, does it update the package derivation everytime i do it? | 02:59:55 |
| jonringer | I which channel do you follow? | 03:00:41 |
 ahdyt | You need to update your channel/flakes first | 03:00:43 |
| jonringer | and it has been solved | 03:00:59 |
| Izdihar | this it the channel i use, should i not use this? nixpkgs https://nixos.org/channels/nixpkgs-unstable
my configuration.nix also pinned to 20.09 but my nixos-version said that its 21.05... i dont get it | 03:01:46 |

I mean I dont really know how nixos rebuild works, i mean, does it update the package derivation everytime i do it? It's basically just upgrade if there's a new update, and to create new update, either you have to update channel or flakes first. | 03:02:13 |

It's basically just upgrade if there's a new update, and to create new update, either you have to update channel or flakes first. im using channel, with nixpkgs -> unstable | 03:02:35 |

It's basically just upgrade if there's a new update, and to create new update, either you have to update channel or flakes first. i've updated my channel using nix-channel --update and do nixos-rebuild switch, there's no indication of new packages being built though... | 03:05:44 |
| jonringer | try sudo nix-channel --update | 03:11:59 |
| jonringer | root user and individual users follow different channels | 03:12:13 |

try sudo nix-channel --update it updated! thanks man, havent tried steam yet though, its still rebuilding | 03:19:43 |
| Natan Lao left the room. | 03:25:42 |
| Izdihar | hello, is there a way to delete steam? i want to start fresh on that one | 03:49:57 |
| jonringer | how did you install it? | 03:58:27 |
| Izdihar | using programs.steam.enable = true; | 04:01:41 |
| jonringer | then sudo nixos-rebuild switch should replace it | 04:02:09 |
| Izdihar | i've rebuild my system with channels updated and its still shows the same error. might as well start fresh | 04:02:12 |
| jonringer | did you try NIX_PATH=nixpkgs=https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/archive/refs/heads/master.tar.gz nix-shell -p steam --run steam? | 04:02:59 |
| Izdihar | these are my channels
nixos https://nixos.org/channels/nixos-20.09
nixpkgs https://nixos.org/channels/nixpkgs-unstable | 04:03:11 |
| Izdihar | In reply to @jonringer:matrix.org
