 @timdeh:matrix.org | I wonder why this isn't happening in my system then? the nix patch must have been very recently added to the system derivation. It used to be just in the shell | 20:04:55 |

tbh, i'm not really sure what's going wrong here, hard to say without seeing the code or a larger stacktrace https://github.com/tgunnoe/nixos/blob/master/users/tgunnoe/default.nix#L31
https://github.com/tgunnoe/nixos/blob/master/flake.nix#L142-L145
the stack trace: https://gist.github.com/tgunnoe/5bc2a5310a5ef3a8b6cc2f032b69e43a | 20:09:24 |
| ultranix | i find it hard to understand this stack trace too | 20:09:48 |
| ultranix | because errors are from nixpkgs i believe | 20:10:24 |
| @timdeh:matrix.org | it might be something simple. Try not using the with binding after imports. | 20:13:57 |
| @timdeh:matrix.org | computation in imports reliably causes infinite recursion, since it needs to compute to import, but it needs to import to compute, and so on | 20:14:22 |
| @timdeh:matrix.org | not sure if with would cause this, but it's worth a try. | 20:14:49 |
| ultranix | ah, that's not it because i was just following the above example kraftnix provided. i dont usually have it. | 20:18:50 |
| ultranix | i removed the whole home.users section from flake.nix because no one else seems to have it, and i dont understand what it's for | 20:19:36 |
| ultranix | i removed nonessentials from the users/<user>/default.nix to see if it works https://gist.github.com/tgunnoe/5af21a82e3dca1da70ea8585edf91fb6 but no luck either. i'll try to rebase on master again but the latest i have isnt that old, maybe a few weeks | 20:22:09 |
 @kraftnix:matrix.org | sorry, i got a call so can't look deeper for a bit, i recommend going super minimal and readding stuff till it works | 20:23:29 |
| ultranix | np | 20:24:17 |
| ultranix | by the way, nur is referenced as an output on master but there's no input for it | 20:25:27 |

this might be of your liking: https://github.com/divnix/digga/tree/main/examples/hmOnly How do I deploy the hmOnly example? I tried the previous command I was using and got an error about following a non-existent input:
nix run github:nix-community/home-manager --no-write-lock-file -- switch --flake .#d4hines
warning: not writing modified lock file of flake 'github:nix-community/home-manager':

 David Arnold (blaggacao) | That's a serious deadlock... We nead a serious hack (until that patch we are talking about lands) | 20:28:05 |

| @d4hines:matrix.org | Let me link you to the exact flake.nix https://github.com/d4hines/beth/blob/master/flake.nix | 20:29:11 |
| David Arnold (blaggacao) | Can you try nix develop github:divnix/digga --command nix flake update | 20:30:48 |
| David Arnold (blaggacao) | (this gives you the patched version that is needed for updates only) | 20:31:18 |
| David Arnold (blaggacao) | once the lockfile is created, all commands work except updates. | 20:32:08 |
| @d4hines:matrix.org | So what is the process then to do the switch? nix shell ...? | 20:33:30 |
| @d4hines:matrix.org | (The flake update command worked btw!) | 20:34:13 |
| David Arnold (blaggacao) | well, with that, you can enter the devshell which has some breadcrumbs... | 20:54:33 |
| David Arnold (blaggacao) | nix develop | 20:54:43 |
| ultranix | what is bud? | 20:55:27 |
| David Arnold (blaggacao) | bud is your buddy: https://github.com/divnix/bud | 20:55:51 |
| David Arnold (blaggacao) | it can be used to create your own cli tool | 20:56:13 |
| David Arnold (blaggacao) | and there is a home sucommand which might (eventually) | 20:56:46 |
| David Arnold (blaggacao) | * and there is a home sucommand which might (eventually) work: https://github.com/divnix/bud/blob/main/scripts/hm-home.bash | 20:57:01 |
| David Arnold (blaggacao) | (I haven't come around to test it yet properly) | 20:57:40 |
