 @ajcxz0:matrix.org | Looking good so far. It seems like a variation I had not tried was using pkgs.gnome.gnome-shell-extensions versus gnome.gnome-shell-extensions or gnome-shell-extensions in each of the places I tried it. Thank you!
environment.gnome.excludePackages = (with pkgs; [
pkgs.gnome.gnome-shell-extensions
gnome-photos
gnome-tour
]) ++ (with pkgs.gnome; [
atomix # puzzle game
cheese # webcam tool
...
]);
$ sudo nixos-rebuild switch
building Nix...
building the system configuration...
these 25 derivations will be built:
...
I'll test the results by logging out and back in shortly.

| @ajcxz0:matrix.org | Logged out, rebooted (just to be 100% certain), logged back in and all extensions are goes according to both org.gnome.Extensions and https://extensions.gnome.org/local/
Thank you! | 19:35:38 |
| @ajcxz0:matrix.org | * Logged out, rebooted (just to be 100% certain), logged back in and all extensions are gone according to both org.gnome.Extensions and https://extensions.gnome.org/local/ with nothing broken which I've noticed yet.
Thank you! | 19:37:50 |
| @ajcxz0:matrix.org | * How do I remove all the Extensions from my default NixOS + GNOME install?
I've RTFM, RTFW, STFW, chatted with two AI bots (one of which told me to RTFM after getting almost everything wrong), searched here and tried every variation of all the suggestions I've found resulting in nothing but errors while "building the system configuration..."
I'm not using home-manager, just configuration.nix. I would like to manage my user desktop environment locally, i.e. user Flatpaks, dconf-editor, Extensions, etc. - at least for now.
[Please respond in a thread, as I don't want to clutter the Room with my cluelessness.]
Update: Solution by Jan Tojnar fully described in the thread.

We should have it, make sure to add the relevant gstreamer plugin to the program’s buildInputs and wrapGAppsHook to its nativeBuildInputs: https://nixos.org/manual/nixpkgs/stable/#ssec-gnome-plugins We don't: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/nixos-23.05/pkgs/development/libraries/webkitgtk/default.nix#L197
it requires -DUSE_GSTREAMER_WEBRTC=ON and -DENABLE_WEB_RTC=ON

 @galaxy-nova:matrix.org | hello | 02:40:51 |
| @galaxy-nova:matrix.org | i can't build the branch | 02:40:54 |
| @galaxy-nova:matrix.org | gjs fails to build for me | 02:41:02 |
| @galaxy-nova:matrix.org | Download log.txt | 02:43:31 |
| @galaxy-nova:matrix.org | things seem to be getting killed by SIGTRAP which is pretty odd | 02:43:56 |
| @galaxy-nova:matrix.org | not sure what this is being cauised by | 02:44:05 |
| @galaxy-nova:matrix.org | any idea what could be causing this? | 02:50:14 |

hmm, looks like it is still experimental, you can enable it locally with overrideAttrs but we probably do not want that in Nixpkgs yet | 11:35:30 |

things seem to be getting killed by SIGTRAP which is pretty odd that usually means test crashes, maybe try building it again in case it is non-deterministic failure. Sometimes the non-deterministic failures are more likely to occur when the CPU is busy (e.g. building a lot of other stuff) so also try building just gjs | 11:40:01 |

Thank you, Jan Tojnar . I appreciate the quick response even if I don't fully understand it yet.
Those two gnome.nix URLs are the same an I trust seeing them again will not materially affect how I should change configuration.nix in my 23.05 channel install. That is, of course, what I have been trying and failing to successfully do.
I will try to translate
Adding pkgs.gnome.gnome-shell-extensions to environment.gnome.excludePackages NixOS option
into code which fits in my nearly default configuration.nix, then share it here.
updated the URL, it should have been https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/44688570acaa6bf06a50a479f5d86e9c1adbe033/pkgs/desktops/gnome/extensions/extensionOverrides.nix | 11:42:36 |

| Jan Tojnar | how what? | 11:43:01 |
| @5m5z3q888q5prxkg:chat.lightnovel-dungeon.de | how to enable it (i am still learning nix) | 11:43:18 |

| @5m5z3q888q5prxkg:chat.lightnovel-dungeon.de | Did anyone looked at https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/260222 yet? For some reason the gnome-shell is giving me DRM_IOCTL_MODE_CREATE_DUMB failed errors that is causing the system to crash and that seems to be specific to the gnome-shell atm no matter which mesa i use | 03:25:03 |
| @5m5z3q888q5prxkg:chat.lightnovel-dungeon.de | like afaik the issue is caused by https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/issues/8198 which should be long fixed now and changing mesa versions doesn't seem to have an effect on it | 03:27:34 |

How are you switching mesa? | 08:54:15 |
| @5m5z3q888q5prxkg:chat.lightnovel-dungeon.de | In reply to @jtojnar:matrix.org
I have not seen that. How are you switching mesa? With:
nixpkgs.overlays =
[ (self: super:
{
mesa = pkgs.mesa_22_3;
}
)];
And doing unstable nixos configuration
