@thomasjm:matrix.orgthomasjmhi all, i'm trying to do a simple darwin-related fix in Nixpkgs and the CI is failing after 15 minutes, seemingly because it doesn't pick up a runner? does anyone know if darwin runners are having problems? https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/44712202:37:25
@toonn:matrix.orgtoonn thomasjm: Might be worth asking in #infrastructure:nixos.org 09:43:12
@thomasjm:matrix.orgthomasjmoh someone kindly came along and merged it already, thanks!09:43:39

@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy EckenrodeHe didn’t even try creating his own?20:07:43
@niklaskorz:matrix.orgniklaskorz either that or he didn't want to wait for the conclusion of those experiments before publishing something about it 20:19:12

@pink_rocky:tchncs.derocky ((λ💝.💝)💐) (she/they; ask before DM please) Hi everyone! I’m trying to build NixOS darwin, and I’m expecting a couple applications linked to /Users/rocky. I rebuild using `darwin-rebuild switch, and is okay except for the following warning:

warning: /Applications/Nix Apps is not owned by nix-darwin, skipping App linking

How do I get those apps to link?

@pink_rocky:tchncs.derocky ((λ💝.💝)💐) (she/they; ask before DM please)My dotfiles currently04:59:59
@ecco256:matrix.orgErik Take what I say with a grain of salt because I’m also pretty new to nix-darwin, but I think if you delete (or rename) the Nix Apps dir it’ll just recreate it. Presumably with the correct permissions? 06:17:44
@pink_rocky:tchncs.derocky ((λ💝.💝)💐) (she/they; ask before DM please) ooh okay, I shall try to delete it 06:18:11

@pink_rocky:tchncs.derocky ((λ💝.💝)💐) (she/they; ask before DM please) That did something, it removed the warning, but now that folder is empty 00:15:27
@pink_rocky:tchncs.derocky ((λ💝.💝)💐) (she/they; ask before DM please)I’m going to see what happens when I delete it again00:15:38
@pink_rocky:tchncs.derocky ((λ💝.💝)💐) (she/they; ask before DM please)Still not it, and I‘m running with and without sudo now00:16:38
@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy Eckenrode Packages installed with home.packages will be linked in ~/Applications/Home Manager Apps. Your configs appear to have only Home Manager packages. 00:24:02
@pink_rocky:tchncs.derocky ((λ💝.💝)💐) (she/they; ask before DM please) Ah, okay. Right now that is a broken link, so I’ll try to delete that one as well and rebuild 00:28:18
@pink_rocky:tchncs.derocky ((λ💝.💝)💐) (she/they; ask before DM please) After I deleted that directory and ran darwin-rebuild again, nothing was there 00:30:03
@pink_rocky:tchncs.derocky ((λ💝.💝)💐) (she/they; ask before DM please)The directory did not get created again00:30:12
@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy EckenrodeThe Home Manager one?00:30:24
@pink_rocky:tchncs.derocky ((λ💝.💝)💐) (she/they; ask before DM please) Yes, ~/Applications/Home Manager Apps 00:30:47
@pink_rocky:tchncs.derocky ((λ💝.💝)💐) (she/they; ask before DM please)is non existant right now00:36:07
@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy Eckenrode Are other (CLI) HM apps working? It seems hard to believe that there are no .app applications in your config based on what I’ve seen. 00:51:52
@pink_rocky:tchncs.derocky ((λ💝.💝)💐) (she/they; ask before DM please) home-manager command not found 01:06:41
@pink_rocky:tchncs.derocky ((λ💝.💝)💐) (she/they; ask before DM please)Do I need to initialize Home Manager separately?01:07:28
@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy EckenrodeYou should be able to use it as a module.01:07:46
@pink_rocky:tchncs.derocky ((λ💝.💝)💐) (she/they; ask before DM please)hmm01:07:53
