 Subject: Re: [Nix-dev] Cinnamon quitting

 Excerpts from Roelof Wobben's message of Sat Dec 21 19:45:59 +0100 2013:
 Because I do not get Cinnamon work because of the error I mentioned
 I forced to quit this project.

 If you write such a message
 a) reference the error you couldn't get to work

I did already in several other messages. 

 b) Rethink whether Cinnamon is most important to you.

Yes, It it. 

 c) If it is, rethink whether you have to give up on this project
 (whatever you mean by that) - eg you can happily install the nix
 toolchain on ubuntu - thus get both - or install Cinnamon in a chroot
 etc.

I cannot compile it and pointing to Ubuntu I get the feeling not gettting 
serious. 
Another thing that is bugging me is that I have to wait more than 4 days for 
something
gets accepted. As I see how many packages I have to do , I think I wil be ready 
in 2020.

Re: [Nix-dev] [***SPAM***] Re: Fix libreoffice build

2013-12-22 Thread Mathijs Kwik
I tried 0.5.0, 0.5.1 and 0.7.0 but they all have the same issue.
This patch fixes the problem for all of them, but as libreoffice
advises the use of 0.3.0 (which we had), we better stick to that.

 Hello,

 I'm trying to install nixops on a headless server and I get the following
 error which seems to be related to the lack of X environment.
 I set the option
 deployment.virtualbox.headless = true;
 and completely destroyed and recreated the cloud but it doesn't seem to
 have affect.
 Any idea?

 Thanks,
 Marco

Nothing requires you to wait for individual packages to be accepted
before moving on to your next package.  Nor that you can't do multiple
packages in the same pull request.

Re: [Nix-dev] Nixops on headless server

2013-12-22 Thread Patrick Wheeler
I found my problem.

I remembered I needed to include something like:

require = [ nixos/modules/programs/virtualbox.nix ];

in the configuration.nix, or in my nixops expression.
