Jan Tojnar | That should be fixed by https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/147032 | 00:13:32 |

ius | So on 21.05 GNOME wouldn't show applications after a rebuild switch, in 21.11 this seems to work except for the icon.. | 17:08:36 |
Jan Tojnar | ius: it was partly fixed by https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/118100 | 18:03:55 |
ius | Ah, neat. That was a pretty frustrating issue. | 18:05:35 |

fabianhjr | There is something odd going on on the main branch | 17:01:57 |
fabianhjr | gdm.service seems to be masked by systemd | 17:02:12 |
Jan Tojnar | fabianhjr: it is started as display-manager.service | 18:15:48 |
Jan Tojnar | IIRC | 18:16:03 |
fabianhjr | will investigate this afternoon. gettting a crash after a recent nixos-rebuild. | 19:25:15 |

hpfr | anyone else using GSConnect? The firefox extension doesn't seem to work because of how nix installs extensions; neither of these paths are present for me. if anyone else is using it, were you able to fix this somehow? | 00:24:22 |
Jan Tojnar | hpfr: native messaging hosts can be injected to firefox https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/3173e260e8cc39d64af753edb2bbdc01039c7efb/pkgs/applications/networking/browsers/firefox/wrapper.nix#L64 | 00:27:42 |
Jan Tojnar | you can just set it in nixpkgs.config https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/25a431819b54389580f629e1e2e6fdbc4d8632d4/nixos/modules/services/desktops/gnome/chrome-gnome-shell.nix#L39 | 00:29:05 |
hpfr | oh cool, tridactyl native too. thank you, I'll give those a shot | 00:30:06 |
Jan Tojnar | doesn’t work with firefox-bin though | 00:31:42 |
hpfr | oh that's fine I'd probably just use the flatpak if I wanted a binary package? not sure why nix does those | 00:32:58 |
Jan Tojnar | it has/had better performance than the native version, not sure if we fixed it | 00:33:43 |
hpfr | so nixpkgs.config doesn't cause a rebuild from source? | 00:33:50 |
Jan Tojnar | also it can be updated faster | 00:33:52 |
Jan Tojnar | it does, but only of the wrapper | 00:34:06 |
hpfr | oh, ok | 00:34:14 |
hpfr | are things just added to nixpkgs.config when it seems like they're common enough? as opposed to normal overlays | 00:35:05 |
Jan Tojnar | it probably depends on the maintainer | 00:35:36 |
Jan Tojnar | personally, I do not like to use it | 00:35:49 |
hpfr | I see | 00:36:58 |
Jan Tojnar | I just pass the arguments directly: https://github.com/jtojnar/nixfiles/blob/4d112f1b5eeaf0cf65f28419118f5194a93162b4/hosts/theo/configuration.nix#L143-L147 | 00:37:14 |
hpfr | I think I'm going to have to do an overlay of the wrapper anyway to add pkgs.gnomeExtensions.gsconnect to extraNativeMessagingHosts, right? | 00:37:51 |
Jan Tojnar | since nixpkgs.config does not even work with the way I instantiate packages | 00:37:52 |
hpfr | why not? | 00:38:06 |
