 maralorn | The easiest way right now is to run nom-build on the system closure expression right before running nixos-rebuild. | 09:00:37 |
| maralorn | I think to really use nom in nixos-rebuild we need to add a tiny bit of behavior to nom. | 09:01:31 |
| maralorn | I will get to it sometime this year. | 09:01:50 |

I think to really use nom in nixos-rebuild we need to add a tiny bit of behavior to nom. What're you thinking? | 16:20:55 |
| maralorn | If I remember correctly nixos-rebuild calls a few nix commands which are currently not supported by the nom drop in. | 16:24:48 |
| maralorn | I fix would be trivial, but I never dared to approach that because it requires adding nom specific plumbing directly in the nixpkgs code. Although at this point I think nom has so much traction in the community that opt-in nom support in nixos-rebuild would probably be accepted. | 16:27:19 |

| Philip Taron (UTC-8) | It looks like there's just one place that nix-build is called in nixos-rebuild. I'll see if I can substitute it in my own overlay. | 16:28:22 |
