Hi yajo, this didn't work for me, my is still "20.09pre-git". Also I think you meant ('~' instead of '../../'):
~> ln -sf ~/.nix-defexpr/channels/nixpkgs ~/.nix-portable/channels/nixpkgs
It is updated on master. There is just no release yet as we still have a breakage inside docker environments. If you don't care about that feel free to just build a binary yourself from the flake on master
@DavHau so newer versions won't work in docker anymore? :(
I have been struggling to update the bundled nixpkgs, as it is quite old these days. I can see that using nix-channel is not supported: https://github.com/DavHau/nix-portable/blob/55feedfc61a959bafc6c944e46e3e452cffb1999/README.md?plain=1#L40-L42
Well... I just found a way to do it, and wanted to share it in case it helps adding that support.
IIUC, by shipping that symlink out of the box, we'd get usable
nix-channel
