`$out/bin/doom` fails to run

[JonathanLorimer]

I got doom emacs building with nix, but now I am getting this error. I am having trouble tracing it, but it makes me think I probably have a doom directory misconfigured such that its trying to write out to the nix store.

My doom emacs is here but I just copy and pasted from test/doom.d

Yeah, the doom CLI doesn't work yet. I only recently added it to the final binary and I started writing a fix but it's still sitting somewhere in my local WIP branches. You probably want emacs or systemctl --user start emacs. (if you enabled the daemon)

Regardless, some of the other binaries do work and the doom CLI is quite useless when operating under Nix since it mostly just manages package updates, etc.

[JonathanLorimer]

Ahhh, got it, thanks!

I feel like this issue should stay open until it is fixed, if only to have a point of reference when encountering this issue. While I agree the doom CLI is mostly useless, doom doctor is still interesting even with this integration.

[ckiee]

Fair, as you wish :P

doom doctor is working for me in the latest version. It will fail to check the Doom Emacs installation itself, however it seems to check most of the other things successfully:

$ doom doctor
The doctor will see you now...

> Checking your Emacs version...
  x Emacs development version detected (29.0.50)
    Doom supports this version, but you are using a development version of
    Emacs!  Be prepared for possibly weekly breakages that

        - you will have to investigate yourself.  might appear, or be
        - solved, on any Emacs update.  might depend subtly on upstream
        - packages updates.

    You might need to unpin packages to get a fix for a specific commit of
    Emacs,  and you should be ready to downgrade Emacs if something is
    just not fixable.
