<cjpbirkbeck> are the home.keyboard.options string the same ones used for setxbdmap -option?

<cjpbirkbeck> okay, i put in the setxkbmap options into home.keyboard.options -- and it doesn't seem to work :(. xcape service seems to work fine, however.

<rycee> For example, I have `options = ["ctrl:nocaps" "altwin:no_win" "compose:menu" "grp:shifts_toggle" "grp_led:caps"];` in my configuration.

<rycee> Yeah, `manual.html.enable = true` should do it. Then can run `home-manager-help` to open it in a browser.
<Notkea[m]> hi, I'm trying to use home-manager within a nixos container in a declarative way, but it seems that the user configuration isn't applied within the container
<Notkea[m]> there's no error, nixos-rebuild terminates successfully, but my user doesn't have any .nix-profile in its home directory
<Notkea[m]> is there a way to debug this?
<rycee> Check the systemd journal for the user's home-manager service.
<rycee> If you haven't used Nix for the user yet I imagine it is because the per-user profile and gcroot directories are missing. If so try running `nix-env -iE 'p: {}'` as the user and then do the rebuild again.

<Notkea[m]> thanks, apparently the activation fails with: `hm-activate-kea[271]: find: ‘/nix/var/nix/profiles/per-user/kea’: No such file or directory`
klntsky has joined #home-manager
<rycee> Yeah, the `nix-env` command above will generate this directory structure.
<rycee> Might be a bug in Nix 2.3.2: https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/3356
<{^_^}> nix#3356 (by rihardsk, 8 weeks ago, open): Per-user profiles not created when $HOME mounted on NFS
<rycee> Try creating the directories manually: `mkdir -m 0755 -p /nix/var/nix/{profiles,gcroots}/per-user/$USER`
<Notkea[m]> this does the trick, thanks!
