Jan Tojnar | piegames: I think they mean downloading | 21:34:43 |
Jan Tojnar | we will have to compile the schemas when building the package | 21:35:15 |
piegames | I hope this can be done automatically | 21:35:47 |
Jan Tojnar | probably something like find -name .gschemas.xml + dirname + glib-compile-schemas | 22:02:21 |

piegames | I'm creating a VM configuration that has all extensions already installed, as a better testing environment. Would this fit into Nixpkgs? | 22:49:15 |
piegames | Also, the package list contains attributes that don't evaluate (because they throw an exception). How can I filter them out without throwing myself? | 22:49:46 |

Jan Tojnar | piegames: why do they throw an exception? | 06:16:19 |
piegames | Jan Tojnar Because the packages got removed and that's apparently how to deal with it in nixpkgs or something? | 09:11:52 |
Jan Tojnar | piegames: that should not bother you if you disable aliases | 10:32:43 |
Jan Tojnar | and you can also use builtins.tryEval | 10:32:54 |
piegames | I tried pkgs = import ./nixpkgs { allowBroken = true; allowAliases = false; } in the REPL and still get exceptions :( | 10:37:02 |

How does Nix handle this actually? | 16:31:09 |

Jan Tojnar | piegames: most packages compile the schemas as part of their build system | 10:26:09 |
Jan Tojnar | when it is not the case, we call glib-compile-schemas manually | 10:26:27 |
Jan Tojnar | it is somewhat complicated by the fact that we move the schemas to avoid conflicts between gschemas.compiles files of different packages but the glib setup hook takes care of that transparently | 10:28:48 |
Jan Tojnar | so for extensions, I would just recommend doing as above, now | 10:29:38 |
Jan Tojnar | probably something like find -name .gschemas.xml + dirname + glib-compile-schemas | 10:29:48 |

piegames | Okay, thanks | 11:05:02 |

-(𝕂eloτ)- | Anyone that knows where remunds is or where we can reach him? Have been waiting for pop-shell to land for quite some time and hope that we can help accomplish that task soon! | 20:35:08 |

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 |
-(𝕂eloτ)- | 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 |
