| Oscar Vargas Torres | Hello, I am trying to install NixOS with GNOME from a live USB, but I'm getting the error:
nixos changing ownership of path /mnt/nix/store operation not permitted
after doing nixos-install, what am I doing wrong? | 04:45:25 |
 -(๐eloฯ)- | Do you think it would be sane to abandon the pop-shell attempt and move the efforts into the newly released QoL release instead? | 09:15:10 |
| -(๐eloฯ)- | Redacted or Malformed Event | 09:15:48 |

 Jan Tojnar | -(GNU/โฯ)-: if the PR author is non-responsive, feel free to continue in a new PR | 12:27:25 |
| -(๐eloฯ)- | The PR have been inactive for quite some time | 12:28:12 |
| -(๐eloฯ)- | Wonder what it takes to package pop-shell though | 12:28:26 |
| -(๐eloฯ)- | Kinda new to this scope | 12:28:35 |
| Jan Tojnar | I believe the PR is mostly there, just need to fix the color bug IIRC | 12:29:46 |
| Jan Tojnar | try pinging the author on GitHub | 12:29:57 |
| -(๐eloฯ)- | What color bug? | 12:29:58 |
| Jan Tojnar | the one mentioned in the PR | 12:30:08 |
| -(๐eloฯ)- | Will skim through the PR after complete migration from dual boot | 12:30:39 |

 symphorien | how is one supposed to make sure enough icons are available ? https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/126728#discussion_r650554218 | 20:16:05 |
| symphorien | it works on my machine without, presumably because I have the right icon themes installed | 20:16:26 |
| Jan Tojnar | symphorien: that is not currently possible | 20:27:12 |
| symphorien | so you would advise to leave the monkey patching ? | 20:27:39 |
| Jan Tojnar | ideally, upstream would use standard icon names (https://specifications.freedesktop.org/icon-naming-spec/icon-naming-spec-latest.html) | 20:29:40 |
| Jan Tojnar | until they do that, patching will probably be necessary | 20:29:58 |
| Jan Tojnar | symphorien: looks like other people report it too https://sourceforge.net/p/imagination/bugs/86/ | 20:33:55 |
| Jan Tojnar | so it does look like the software just did not update to the new (post-2005) icon names | 20:34:36 |
| symphorien | hum I wouldn't bother pushing upstream (I know I have ported the app to gtk3) | 20:34:47 |
| symphorien | they have their own priorities | 20:34:52 |
| Jan Tojnar | well, the other option is essentially forking the project | 20:37:32 |
| symphorien | the patch is fine :) | 20:37:48 |
| symphorien | I just wanted confirmation that it wasn't a nix-side issue | 20:38:25 |
