Linux Hackerman | heh | 12:04:28 |
artemis | yeah this is just me nix-shelling into it | 12:04:35 |
Linux Hackerman | weird, nix-shell usually provides manpages... | 12:04:44 |
artemis | i dont see it adding anything to my MANPATH so i guess it makes sense | 12:05:51 |
artemis | the only nix thing i have on MANPATH is $HOME/.nix-profile/share/man | 12:06:08 |
artemis | which does have some stuff in it but its stuff i think i actually installed rather than just shelling into | 12:06:27 |
Linux Hackerman | artemis: hm, which package are you getting via nix-shell? | 13:00:40 |
Linux Hackerman | nixos-install-tools does seem to include the manpages | 13:00:47 |
artemis | nixos-install-tools | 13:00:55 |
Linux Hackerman | and you're using nix-shell, not nix shell? | 13:01:14 |
artemis | right | 13:01:17 |
artemis | nix-shell -p nixos-install-tools | 13:01:24 |
Linux Hackerman | huh, same thing for me | 13:01:31 |
Linux Hackerman | does it only work for packages with a split man output..? | 13:01:38 |
artemis | i dont think it works for anything for me | 13:02:38 |
Linux Hackerman | I'm confused | 13:03:46 |
Linux Hackerman | nix-shell -p radvd gets me manpages for radvd, but not via MANPATH | 13:03:57 |
Linux Hackerman | but I'm not seeing an obvious patch to man that would result in this or anything | 13:04:52 |
artemis | yeah i guess it is worth noting that when i run `man` it is my system `man` and not a `man` provided by nix | 13:06:03 |
trofi | https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/master/pkgs/tools/misc/man-db/systemwide-man-db-conf.patch is vaguely related | 13:17:22 |
