I have issues on tauri, because nixos seems to not ship webkitgtk with webrtc support enabled does anyone know how to enable it?

Context: https://webkitgtk.org/2023/02/02/webkitgtk2.38.4-released.html (Fix the build with GStreamer-based WebRTC enabled.)
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 		18:40:18
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan Tojnar Adding pkgs.gnome.gnome-shell-extensions to environment.gnome.excludePackages NixOS option should work 18:42:23
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan Tojnarjust note that some extensions require other dependencies and it might not be easily possible to install those dependencies system-wide18:43:43
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan Tojnarso installing such extensions from Nixpkgs might be the only option18:44:11

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

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.

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

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

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
