I would love to see that in upstream, independence from systemd will open the
door to have some kind of NixBSD and other fun stuff like that. (No longer than
3 days ago there was a discussion for GSOC to have a project to make NixOS +
freebsd).
And besides, since I am following NixOS I have always heard that one of the
long-term goal would be to abstract away from systemd.

Again, there are regular discussions in multiple space to have some kind of
Qubes OS + Nix merge (or related) [1][2][3][4]. Note that Qubes uses SaltStack
[5] to have some kind of declarative VM management. Nix would be a really nice
improvement over that.

All of that would be awesome for NixOS :)

[Nix-dev] Nix v1.11.7 now plays well with Homebrew on macOS
Hello, So I did not really participate in solving this issue, but I just wanted to point out that a recent fix avoid the dreaded SSL certificate error when using Homebrew with the nix environment loaded! A big thank you to all of the participants who helped solve this [1], it really helps to be able to use nix on macOS <3 [1] https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/921#issuecomment-281971377 -- Mayeu a.k.a Matthieu http://mayeu.me GPG: A016 F2D8 0472 1186 1B33 A419 22B1 0496 B00D A693 signature.asc Description: Message signed with OpenPGP using GPGMail ___ nix-dev mailing list nix-dev@lists.science.uu.nl http://lists.science.uu.nl/mailman/listinfo/nix-dev
