should the Nix-installed emacs be aware of system level fonts? i set it to a font i have on my system (not installed through Nix) and it doesn't seem to recognize it

<johnw>
adelbertc: yes, it should
<johnw>
adelbertc: I use system installed fonts
<johnw>
I really like DejaVu Sans Mono these days
<adelbertc>
oh weird i think only the splash screen acted up
<adelbertc>
when i open some code the font works fine
<adelbertc>
johnw: speaking of which, im trying out emacs per ionstrucitons here https://nixos.org/nixpkgs/manual/#sec-emacs - i put in `(setq inhibit-start-screen t)` in my `default.el` but the splash screen still pops up
<johnw>
I wonder why they bother with package.el at all in that default.el
<adelbertc>
as in the `(require package)` bit?
<adelbertc>
i have found some stuff in there that isnt necessary
<johnw>
yeah
<johnw>
i never do that
<adelbertc>
like i think the `:commands` for `projectile` arent needed
<johnw>
I was thinking that instead of this default.el example
<johnw>
we could create a emacsWithUsePackages namespace
<johnw>
that allows defining standard use-package declarations for various packages in Nix
