--apply for nix build
I believe there is a stale CppNix PR to make --apply work for all installables; we should see if that's cherry-pickable
Steps To Reproduce
- Clone git.auxolotl.org/auxolotl/labs via SSH: git clone forgejo@git.auxolotl.org:auxolotl/labs.git
Minor note: clone does not need to be over SSH; we just…

nix build --impure -E 'let f = builtins.getFlake "git+file:$PWD"; pkgs = import f.inputs.nixpkgs { crossSystem.system =…nix shell and nix develop from
This is, more than anything, showing the tension between the "debug a derivation" use case of nix develop and the "provide a dedicated dev shell" use case.
You know this is a good point,…
This turned out to be a lot easier than we expected! Most of the difficulty was from Meson's docs being bad
nix collect-garbage is kind of slow at deleting paths
This shouldn't have a major effect in that regard — it's not parallelizing, just not blocking deletion by store paths being live from not having been deleted yet, and renames are cheap. But…
This being said, we agree that upgrade-nix really should just be killed, and we should just use the installer for upgrades.
If you're getting a profile conflict with Lix's upgrade-nix, that means that it's using the wrong nix-env (either from CppNix or from a version of Lix that didn't have this fix). Lix's…
