I most probably do have the very same issue: https://github.com/novoid/nixos-config/issues/2 https://github.com/novoid/nixos-config/issues/3 https://github.com/novoid/nixos-config/issues/4 https://github.com/novoid/nixos-config/issues/5
I just moved the list of xfce packages including the add-ons/plugins from homemanager/xfce.nix
to configuration.nix
(NixOS without/outside of Home-Manager) and then it worked.
So with Home-manager, it seems to be the case that xfce plugins are not indexed/found.
Same issue: it is not only an issue related to home-manager. It occurs only when you configure these packages in the following manner:
users.users.athena = {
isNormalUser = true;
description = "athena";
extraGroups = [ "networkmanager" "wheel" ];
packages = with pkgs; [
xfce.xfce4-cpugraph-plugin
xfce.xfce4-docklike-plugin
xfce.xfce4-genmon-plugin
xfce.xfce4-pulseaudio-plugin
xfce.xfce4-settings
xfce.xfce4-whiskermenu-plugin
];
};
As already mentioned, they work only if installed by:
environment.systemPackages = with pkgs; [
xfce.xfce4-cpugraph-plugin
xfce.xfce4-docklike-plugin
xfce.xfce4-genmon-plugin
xfce.xfce4-pulseaudio-plugin
xfce.xfce4-settings
xfce.xfce4-whiskermenu-plugin
];
Could it be some XFCE plugins like the one listed in these comments have been packaged in a wrong manner?
@bobby285271 @romildo @muscaln what do you think?
I got the same issue. Placing them inside environment.systemPackages made them appear after rebuild. I`m not using home-manager.
Describe the bug At least
plugins are not available in xfce panel setup unless installed via
environment.systemPackages
.Tried
home-manager
packages andnix-env -iA
options, neither works.To Reproduce
xserver.....xfce.enable = true
nix-env -iA xfce.xfce4-xkb-plugin
||home.packages = [ ... pkgs.xfce.xfce4-xkb-plugin ...]
Expected behavior Keyboard plugin should be listed among available plugins.
Actual behavior The plugin is not listed.
Additional context Using
home-manager
