Most of my info pages are not accessible via M-x info in NDE due to Info-directory-list (elisp var) not containing "~/.nix-profile/share/info" or "/usr/share/info" (I'm on non-NixOS) . Note that Info-default-directory-list does contain "/usr/share/info", so it seems to me that NDE is overriding it at build time.

My plan is to append Info-directory-list this in my config.el. Is there a better way? I don't know, maybe fixing at build-time via nix is better for some reason?

I think you can add something here to fix it at build time: https://github.com/nix-community/nix-doom-emacs/blob/master/workarounds.el

Just to make sure: I would do this by opening a PR, correct?
