Capypara | Hi! Tried building GNOME 49 together with Jovian (SteamOS-like NixOS), there is some sort of conflict, but I can't figure out where exactly its coming from. Somebody have a clue or ideas on how to debug? All it's giving me is a user unit conflict with no further logging than:
ln: failed to create symbolic link '/nix/store/01q6wg55brqjyf0rjxrgg34gp48d0df9-user-units/orca.service': File exists

ElvishJerricco | Capypara: so, I think the bug actually is a nixos thing not really related to gnome | 12:05:12 |
ElvishJerricco | well, "bug" | 12:05:55 |
ElvishJerricco | it seems like we were previously fine with service files colliding from different systemd.packages and now we're not | 12:06:17 |
ElvishJerricco | I suspect it'll be the buildEnv thing that changed in the last staging cycle | 12:06:33 |
ElvishJerricco | oh, lol, no I'm wrong. We've always errored when two systemd.packages tried to have the same unit files. I somehow completely glossed over the fact that we now add orca to systemd.packages when we didn't before. | 14:08:22 |
ElvishJerricco | Capypara: So this is actually a Jovian bug :P | 14:08:37 |
ElvishJerricco | because Jovian's steamos-manager is also providing orca.service | 14:09:09 |
ElvishJerricco | (K900: why is it doing that?) | 14:09:30 |
K900 | It's trying to use a custom one | 14:09:48 |
K900 | I'm not entirely sure what the difference is | 14:09:53 |
Capypara | another issue: GNOME on nixos-unstable reports it's version as "undefined" in regards to Extensions, that prevents any extension from loading. Is that already known? | 14:39:29 |
Capypara | Wait okay no, that just seems to be a localization bug, if I switch language to english it says 49.1, but I'm still confused, why are they not working...? | 14:40:54 |

Capypara | Also for some reasons no keyboard shortcuts work in Firefox | 14:42:32 |
@ghpzin:envs.net | Need extension update to 61:

Capypara | oh, so all extensions in Nixpkgs are just out of date? | 14:43:09 |
Capypara | I have 14 installed, none of them are compatible it seems | 14:44:16 |
