The wiki is read-only and will remains so for an undefined period (forever ?). The general idea is to update the documentation (via pull requests) and kill the outdated wiki pages.

You are most welcom to add up-to-date information to the manual.

PS: Please, someone correct me if I am mistaken about the wiki state.

I tried to add the advice Vladimir gave me, but my user (ierton) have
no write permissions any more. Who can I ask to re-gain them?

Thanks for the '--realize' command, it saved my day!
How should I know the right Nix hash to --realize in future?

Could you help me to understand what is happening? Which settings do
people normally use at the moment?
I've got no idea about what people normally use. Perhaps most of them
update more often.

Instead of one-click-install, I'd use the desired path directly
nix-store --realize /nix/store/mf9ha2d0yz599wx3aw5r0wdzyk5f8lf7-nix-1.11.2
(That should be possible since using binary caches.)


I expect it isn't enough to have new nix to evaluate the expressions but
also running as nix-daemon. Therefore, I suggest you first update your
system without firefox, getting rid of the error and then you can
continue normally, adding it, etc.

That should be possible in revisions after util-linux using sha256 again
