emacsGcc overlay not working #335

Closed codygman closed 3 years ago

My emacsGcc overlay isn't taking affect? Or perhaps how I could debug why?

Overlay: https://github.com/codygman/devos/blob/gccemacs/overlays/emacsGcc.nix

It would help if debugging flakes were easier with the repl here. I'm also not sure how to use nix run to test just emacsGcc, so that makes this harder to debug.

Maybe the root cause of my misunderstanding here can help improve documentation. On that note it might be useful to mention that extern is the easiest place to add things like emacsOverlay or sops-nix.

Because honestly I went in this order kind of guessing where to add emacs-ovetlay:
