I am using home-manager/flake inside ubuntu currently

# If being bool, the value of config is used.
# Its value can also be a derivation like this if you want to do some

# src = ./emacs.el;
# inherit (config.xdg) configHome dataHome;

    # packages with `:ensure`, `:ensure t` or `:ensure <package name>`.
    # Setting `alwaysEnsure` to `true` emulates `use-package-always-ensure`
    # and pulls in all use-package references not explicitly disabled via
    # `:ensure nil` or `:disabled`.
    # Note that this is NOT recommended unless you've actually set
    # `use-package-always-ensure` to `t` in your config.
    # alwaysEnsure = true;


    # Optionally provide extra packages not in the configuration file.

I see what you did there.... do I need the plantuml.jar and sounds?

In reply to @tactfulvessel:matrix.org
will I be able to use the nixos example about installing packages outside of elpa and melpa

In reply to @tactfulvessel:matrix.org
