 Burgess Chang | Hi, when installing elpaPackages.setup, I encountered the error:It seems this issue was caused by byte-compiling setup-pkg.el. However, setup-pkg.el has the correct no-byte-compile setting, as shown below:I am puzzled, has anyone encountered a similar issue? Detailed log: https://paste.mozilla.org/Hux9R7rS | 07:13:36 |

 linj | In reply to @brsvh:mozilla.orglooks like https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=67916, but that says this should be a warning instead of error | 12:02:46 |
| Burgess Chang | In reply to @me:linj.techGot it. For now, I'm skip it temporarily by overriding `ignoreCompilationError`. Is there an attribute available to control warnings as errors? | 12:15:02 |
| linj | not that I know of | 12:16:55 |
| linj | It is weird that it is indeed a warning for some other packages that I tested | 12:19:46 |
| Burgess Chang | yes, I only found setup.el. | 12:23:18 |

| yut0 | Is there a way to build emacs with configurations such that the entire thing (binary + config) is distributable? i.e. Similar to how kickstart-nix.nvim produces a package that includes the config file so that any file in ~/.config/nvim won't affect the behavior of the package? | 23:45:05 |
| yut0 | In other words, I'm wondering if there's a way to make an emacs package such that ~/.emacs.d or whatever file configures emacs in my home directory doesn't affect the emacs in my package? | 23:45:59 |

 rczb | How can Nix quotes be handled properly in Emacs? Smartparens seems not very smart for this case. In fact, its smartness causes wrong matching of '' (and some other cases as well) and it acts worse than the stupid nvim-autopairs of Neovim. | 01:17:29 |
| rczb | I think it would need complicate configuration of "permissions" to work well. Is there any solution that can recognize the tree-sitter grammar and "just know" how to match quotes? | 01:20:16 |
 antifuchs | I had a little smartparens thing that was supposed to keep them balanced, but neither that nor electric-pair do it well | 02:42:31 |
| antifuchs | I did try to write this tree-sitter thing too, but the issue with it is that there just are a ton (more than I could come up with) of ways for a buffer to no longer parse, and you’d have to store previous parse states to compare the damaged regions, and then that is not easy/possible because the tree is only valid for the current buffer contents | 02:44:26 |
| antifuchs | Like, it’d be really really cool if there was a thing. Maybe with a “shadow” buffer that gets updated when there’s a valid parse? But again, many kinds of damage - made worse by a pair of single quotes being ambiguous | 02:45:42 |
| rczb | Nix IDE of VSCodium just work well. I don't konw how it does. However, Nix IDE with nil randomly reports some parsing errors. | 03:22:24 |
| Burgess Chang | In reply to@yut0:matrix.orgThis is feasible, in fact, I’m doing it now. I package all configurations into a single epkg, then require it in the user-init-file. | 05:17:52 |
| Burgess Chang | However, this approach has some limitations. If the configuration depends on external programs, it is hard to set the real store path within Emacs Lisp files. | 05:19:29 |
| Burgess Chang | May be it is necessary to create an wrapper for emacs to add additional drv paths to the PATH. | 05:21:13 |
| Burgess Chang | If you're looking for a portable configuration, I suggest taking a look at emacs-twist.https://github.com/emacs-twist/twist.nix | 05:25:41 |
| yut0 | Thanks! That looks like what I'm looking for | 18:34:33 |

| wleslie | Greetings! I'm somewhat new to nix. I used the emacs overlay in a VM a few months ago and loved it, and now I'm trying to get it set up on a new VM. Is there a recommended version of the overlay that works against nixos-24.05? I'm getting `error: function 'anonymous lambda' called with unexpected argument 'nongnuDevelPackages' as above. I've run nix-channel --update and built with my emacsWithPackagesFromUsePackage expression commented out, so as far as I can tell I'm up to date. | 04:04:45 |

 adisbladis | In reply to @wleslie:matrix.orgUpdate your channel. The addition of nongnu devel was backported https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/331072 | 04:09:09 |
| wleslie | In reply to @adis:blad.isThank you for your reply. I'm sorry, is this not updating my channel? $ nix-channel --update nixos unpacking channels... $ nix-channel --list nixos https://nixos.org/channels/nixos-24.05 $ | 05:15:50 |
| wleslie | In reply to @wleslie:matrix.orgah, sorry, it's different for root, I see | 05:16:35 |
| wleslie | In reply to @wleslie:matrix.orgwe have emacs! thank you muchly. | 05:48:15 |
