An independent package manager that every hacker deserves
And if you're not able to install Nix (running something on a target machine?), you can use `nix bundle` on your own machine. More relevant for the author may be that the selection of pentesting tools in Nixpkgs is lacking[1].

Changes to xdg.portals?
Am I reading this correctly? https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/592047fc9e4f7b74a4dc85d1b9f5243dfe4899e3/nixos/modules/config/xdg/portal.nix

Subject: Separating Debug Symbols from Executables
I apologize for the moderately OT help request, but as Tweag has some great nix / rust content, and this is about debugging, I thought some HNers with relevant interests might swing by -- I am going nuts trying to get debugging working for nix-compiled rust on an M1 Mac (via llvm). My posts to the nix forum, rust forum, and my nixpkgs repo have gone without response, and I'm a humble hobbyist that is running out of ideas. If anyone has any ideas or suggestions, please take a look at https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/262131 -- TIA, and I apologize again if this detracts from the OP!

> Strange, I do not see a kernel or linux package.
The kernel source is pulled in by the respective .nix to build the kernel. Eg. the following defines which commit of zen-kernel should be used as source.

macOS Sonoma Broke Grep
I really don't see how it is "unacceptably bad". You don't even have to understand anything about Nix and still be able to use the damn thing. Yes the real-version vs attribute-name-that-contains-a-version is a bit wonky but in practice that's seriously not an issue.
But really, for versions you can actually pick whatever version you wish by hitting a specific channel state:
nix-env -f https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/archive/nixos-23.05.tar.gz -iA ruby -
