 ultranix | "All modules defined in user modules will be imported to Home Manager." so maybe it should go in /users/modules/ instead? | 16:07:10 |
| ultranix | well maybe not, because its from nur | 16:08:08 |
 @kraftnix:matrix.org | I'm surprised your old version worked before to be honest, i've always imported home-manager modules differently, but i didn't feel like going through commits from many months ago, but I used to import in a different way | 16:08:29 |
| ultranix | it's confusing having nixos modules and home-manager modules, and why more modules arent worked into nixos | 16:12:47 |
| ultranix | separation of system and users | 16:12:58 |
 @gtrunsec:matrix.org | kraftnix: https://github.com/divnix/digga/pull/97, May you explain some reasons simply for your use case why we need it. Thx | 16:32:44 |

| ultranix | still, strangest thing ever | 18:20:34 |
| ultranix | the profile directory cannot be named users/profiles/emacs so i have to refer to it as users/profiles/e-macs or similar | 18:21:55 |
| ultranix | i wonder if its because of the emacs-overlay included from nix-community | 18:22:35 |
| ultranix | what is digga.overlay.patchedNix for? | 19:08:41 |

what is digga.overlay.patchedNix for? It's nix with the pending follows patch. | 23:04:16 |

i essentially have scripts for this for zfs/btrfs (which aren't currently supported 🤔, so may be worth contributing). one problem i see for install automation (unless your deploy-rs PR handles this for install) is if you are using luks and/or zfs you need some hashes for your new host (hostId for zfs, uuid for luks devices), i tend to just let this be auto-generated by nixos-generate-config but it's been a barrier for me in terms of further automation. my PR to deploy-rs esentially does just add the capability to install onto a mountpoint and changes the nixos activation script to do the work that otherwise nixos-install does.. | 23:05:41 |

It's nix with the pending follows patch. i had to comment it out because it was failing | 23:33:44 |
| David Arnold (blaggacao) | Yeah, I wanted to do a fix but got cought in a time eating chore loop today... 🤣 | 23:36:15 |
| David Arnold (blaggacao) | If anyone has a standing wire to elco, maybe it's time to reiterate that the situation w.r.t. https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/4641 is becoming unbearable... | 23:37:33 |

| David Arnold (blaggacao) | Gytis Ivaskevicius: is your wire still standing? | 23:42:40 |
 @gytis-ivaskevicius:matrix.org | How about you ask about it in rfc96 channel? | 23:47:38 |
| @gytis-ivaskevicius:matrix.org | Or just dm him | 23:57:22 |

|  tomberek joined the room. | 01:33:35 |
| ultranix | I didn't start using follows until devos, what's good about it? every flake follows one nixpkgs commit for example? and you wont need to download a separate one for every flake? | 01:52:07 |
| David Arnold (blaggacao) | Exactly, follows are a necessary consequence of coercing inputs. Remember that overlays is not a language level implementation, but a nixpkgs idiom. | 01:55:03 |
| ultranix | yes | 01:55:26 |
 @timdeh:matrix.org | I mean follows help keep the closure size under control, which is fine for the flake developer, but it can cause cache misses when used unexpectedly by the consumer | 02:04:31 |
