The nixosSystem function does not know about an argument packages, you probably ment to use a module which adds those to environment.systemPackages.

aleeusgr commented 2 years ago

now for me to understand.

You need to set environment.systemPackages in a module.

I am not sure what you want to import, nor what configuration.nix is, other than an arbitrary file name.

OK, I needed this. Thank you, @NobbZ
