 zororg | Any embark and org users, having issue with embark-act on org-link? | 05:36:49 |
| zororg | Anyway, how do I recompile a emacsPackage installed via nix (hm) ?
Author of org suggested to recompile embark package thats why | 05:46:18 |
 gekoke | if recompiling did anything, that would defeat the purpose of Nix | 11:30:31 |
| gekoke | why does the author recommend recompiling? | 11:30:45 |
| @_bifrost_acidbong=40hmm.st:aria-net.org | gekoke: recompiling what? i hope i didn't miss a message with context | 14:06:16 |

 @dschrempf:matrix.org | @zororg See https://github.com/oantolin/embark/issues/723, we are also a bit clueless. It's as if the byte-compiled file is wrong. | 19:05:54 |

 edgar.vincent | Hi everyone. I'm sorry, I know this question has been asked thousands of times but I cannot wrap my head around it.
How do I get my home-manager NixOS module pick up the overlay's emacs-unstable package?
I have:
emacs-overlay = {
url = "github:nix-community/emacs-overlay";
};
in my flake.nix, which nix doesn't complain about, but I can't figure out what to add in my home.nix.
| 21:09:04 |
 lewo | edgar.vincent: you should be able to find answers in such kind of post i guess: https://discourse.nixos.org/t/using-a-flake-overlay-with-home-manager/19068/4 | 21:18:22 |
| edgar.vincent | Thanks. Yes, I had a look a that, still doesn't make sense to me, but I'll carry on investigating. | 22:15:37 |

Thanks. Yes, I had a look a that, still doesn't make sense to me, but I'll carry on investigating. solved?
you have to set nixpkgs overlay
{
nixpkgs = {
overlays = with inputs; [emacs-overlay.overlay];
};}

you have to set nixpkgs overlay in configuration.nix (nixos configs)
{
nixpkgs = {
overlays = with inputs; [emacs-overlay.overlay];
};}
| 14:10:26 |
| zororg | Then you can use emacs-git or emacs-pgtk or so...
You can list all available package from it by
$ nix search emacs-overlay# (press Enter or TAB)

why does the author recommend recompiling? They mention that, org 9.7 needs recompiling of packages that depend on it. Maybe not mandatory, but to avoid breaking of some functions | 14:15:31 |

| gekoke | then you'd need to bump to the newer version of org and things should work | 14:19:34 |
| zororg | Are you using embark? | 14:21:50 |

Thanks a lot! I did indeed solve it with something similar. | 14:34:42 |
