Thanks Tomasz that did the trick. So if you dont need this mechanism (have root privileges) its best to not use userpackages to prevent this to happen?
I never understand the concept of installing software manualy in a declerative operating system, cause it makes your step not easy reproducable, I did use it anyway kind of out of lazyness I think, but that seems to me than a second reason to not use that way of installing packages again. Sorry I dont want to troll, but maybe somebody have some oppinions about that, maybe a warning in the documentation that this method of installing software is not recommened for nixos users or explaination for which cases its a good thing to do something like that, or mention better the disadvantages (like this), would be a good idea?
