You mean this?
>> nix-locate '/bin/edir'
edir.out 348 x /nix/store/ncgjrkizci1q0fiv6f7cwrbn842341hm-edir-2.7.3/bin/edir
out
is name of output. If derivation has no explicit outputs = ...
, it has only one output named out
. Outputs are equivalent of binary packages for dpkgs, if that helps.
The answer @KAction gave is correct, the default output is called '.out' but there are also packages which have '.dev' etc. for development headers.
Thanks guys.
This is just a question, I am new to NixOS, and couldn't find an answer anywhere else.
Why there is an '.out' extension of the applications?
