[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Hi,

Peng Mei Yu <pengmeiyu <at> riseup.net> skribis:

> * gnu/services/nix.scm (nix-shepherd-service): Set NIX_CONF_DIR environment
> variable to "/etc/nix".

Does the (untested) patch below solve the problem for you?

Perhaps it’s more appropriate than setting NIX_CONF_DIR.

Thanks,
Ludo’.
