Greetings, all. Some kind humans helped me fix this in the past: I'm finding that nix-channel --update does not actually pull down the latest nixpkgs tarball. The fix was to symlink a certain file into my home directory, but I don't remember which one. Can someone give me a pointer to the file?
<szicari>
I think LnL might have helped me with it, but there have been several helpful people so I'm not sure.
<LnL>
~10min
<szicari>
Thanks, LnL.
<LnL>
ok, I lied but here I am
<LnL>
can you run nix-info
<szicari>
LnL: One moment.
<szicari>
That command doesn't seem to be in my $PATH.
<szicari>
LnL: Where would I find that command?
<LnL>
nix-shell -p nix-info
<LnL>
and also the output of nix-instantiate --eval '<nixpkgs>'
<szicari>
Do I run the last command within the nix-shell that I'm in from the first command?
<szicari>
The output from the second command was just <LAMBDA>.
<szicari>
LnL: ^ ^ ^
<LnL>
ah, my bad nix-instantiate --eval -E '<nixpkgs>'
<szicari>
LnL: Run this from within the nix-shell from the first command?
<szicari>
The output was: /Users/seanzicari/.nix-defexpr/channels/nixpkgs
<elvishjerricco>
How can I make it so that launching the emacs in `~/Application/Nix\ Apps` with the Finder UI gives it my shell's environment? Currently it sees none of my environment variables like PATH.
<LnL>
I don't know, launchctl setenv doesn't help either aparently
<nikivi>
pretty annoying it doesnt work out of the box
<LnL>
packages could reference cacert directly, but then you'd have to rebuild a lot of stuff if you want to use your own cert bundle
<nikivi>
but nix just builds the package
<nikivi>
git in this case
<nikivi>
it should be same git as brew git
<nikivi>
just packaged with nix language
<nikivi>
the outcome should be same
<LnL>
well /usr/bin/git is from apple, not sure how the homebrew people handle this
<nikivi>
oh thats true
<nikivi>
perhaps I will hit the same issue with brew too
<nikivi>
glad it works though
<nikivi>
the level of privacy checks they are adding with Mojawe is crazy
<nikivi>
securityi*
<LnL>
don't see anything special in their package definition, guess they use the bundle that gets shipped with openssl
<nikivi>
in theory I can probably easily change git nix derivation on nixpkgs to use openssl
<nikivi>
and use that build

nix has 'brew services' functionality too right?

nikivi: Nix itself doesn't. You can get stuff like that using https://github.com/LnL7/nix-darwin though (or NixOS, or home-manager on other Linuxes)
