No, sorry, that's wrong — I misinterpreted the source code. The long usage description explains it though: * we can't know the precise attribute path for every package, so if you see the syntax `(attr)` in the output, that means that `attr` is not the target package but that it depends (perhaps indirectly) on the package that contains the searched file. Example: $ nix-locate 'bin/xmonad' (xmonad-with-packages.out) 0 s /nix/store/nl581g5kv3m2xnmmfgb678n91d7ll4vv-ghc-8.0.2-with-packages/bin/xmonad This means that we don't know what nixpkgs attribute produces /nix/store/nl581g5kv3m2xnmmfgb678n91d7ll4vv-ghc-8.0.2-with-packages, but we know that `xmonad-with-packages.out` requires it. _______________________________________________ nix-dev mailing list nix-dev@lists.science.uu.nl https://mailman.science.uu.nl/mailman/listinfo/nix-dev
