thomasjm | hi 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/447122 | 02:37:25 |
toonn | thomasjm: Might be worth asking in #infrastructure:nixos.org | 09:43:12 |
thomasjm | oh someone kindly came along and merged it already, thanks! | 09:43:39 |

samasaur | fascinating | 19:35:53 |
Randy Eckenrode | He didn’t even try creating his own? | 20:07:43 |
niklaskorz | either that or he didn't want to wait for the conclusion of those experiments before publishing something about it | 20:19:12 |

rocky ((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? | 04:59:48 |

rocky ((λ💝.💝)💐) (she/they; ask before DM please) | My dotfiles currently | 04:59:59 |
Erik | 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 |
rocky ((λ💝.💝)💐) (she/they; ask before DM please) | ooh okay, I shall try to delete it | 06:18:11 |
| 5 Oct 2025 |
rocky ((λ💝.💝)💐) (she/they; ask before DM please) | That did something, it removed the warning, but now that folder is empty | 00:15:27 |
rocky ((λ💝.💝)💐) (she/they; ask before DM please) | I’m going to see what happens when I delete it again | 00:15:38 |
rocky ((λ💝.💝)💐) (she/they; ask before DM please) | Still not it, and I‘m running with and without sudo now | 00:16:38 |
Randy 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 |
rocky ((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 |
rocky ((λ💝.💝)💐) (she/they; ask before DM please) | After I deleted that directory and ran darwin-rebuild again, nothing was there | 00:30:03 |
rocky ((λ💝.💝)💐) (she/they; ask before DM please) | The directory did not get created again | 00:30:12 |
Randy Eckenrode | The Home Manager one? | 00:30:24 |
rocky ((λ💝.💝)💐) (she/they; ask before DM please) | Yes, ~/Applications/Home Manager Apps | 00:30:47 |
rocky ((λ💝.💝)💐) (she/they; ask before DM please) | is non existant right now | 00:36:07 |
Randy 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 |
rocky ((λ💝.💝)💐) (she/they; ask before DM please) | home-manager command not found | 01:06:41 |
rocky ((λ💝.💝)💐) (she/they; ask before DM please) | Do I need to initialize Home Manager separately? | 01:07:28 |
Randy Eckenrode | You should be able to use it as a module. | 01:07:46 |
rocky ((λ💝.💝)💐) (she/they; ask before DM please) | hmm | 01:07:53 |
