selector ‘go2nix’ matches no derivations #33

The command in the README isn't working for me:

code/nixpkgs > nix-env -i go2nix
error: selector ‘go2nix’ matches no derivations
code/nixpkgs > nixos-version

What abut nix-env -iA go2nix?

langston-barrett commented 8 years ago

Still no, actually:

code/nixpkgs > git log | head -n 1 
commit 83df0e7b18f3856d631a66243f5ad57571b1306c
code/nixpkgs > nix-env -iA go2nix
error: attribute ‘go2nix’ in selection path ‘go2nix’ not found

Sorry if this a dumb error on my part.

You may need to say explicitly where is your nixpkgs repo like:

code/nixpkgs > nix-env -f . -iA go2nix

Huh, that worked! Thanks! I wonder why I had an issue... Seems like the package name is go1.7-go2nix-1.1.1, maybe that's part of it.

You can try to do https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/487#issuecomment-251756794 if you don't want to use -f all the time.

@kamilchm Thanks, that is confusing behavior :confused:
