No problem!

I'll try this, thanks!

How do you do that? My approach is nixos-rebuild build-vm as someone
else (I guess it was Lethalman) suggested, but it fails with:

    $ sudo nixos-rebuild build-vm -I .
    building Nix...
    building the system configuration...
    error: The option `services.taskserver' defined in 
`/nix/store/sz5aszzk5hn943pcw66iqy5jf21hrws4-nixos/services/taskwarrior.nix' 
does not exist.
    (use ‘--show-trace’ to show detailed location information)

unfortunately. Any pointers?

You're welcome! I actually wanted to write it for a long time, but I
had my taskd server on a debian machine running and it just worked, so
I didn't need it. The debian machine seems to be dead now and I cannot
sync my notebook and my desktop machines tasks... so I started to
write the service (which is actually my first one besides mpdscribble,
which doesn't work yet, too).
