I’m trying to move to NixOS, but I have some issues with image previewing.
I want to add previews for .kra and .psd files in the file manager. On other distros I’d simply add the corresponding kra.thumbnailer file in /usr/share/thumbnailers/ but trying to do so in /run/current-system/sw/thumbnailers is not possible because it’s read-only.
What is the correct way to do it?
Is it done from the *.nix config files? I’m using home-manager.
Great, I used the home-manager script. But it’s not fully functional: when I search .kra in Nautilus, the previews appear normally, but not when I browse to a directory. Any idea on why that may be happening?
Aha! That fixed it. Cool, everything works now, thanks! I wish I had found that wiki entry before.
Thanks @eljamm for your kind help : ) I’m on stable for now. But I might move to unstable soon. I need to get everything working first, though. Slowly getting there.
Wish I’d found this sooner too . It nicely and clearly explains everything. Well done!
You definitely should take your time getting everything working first. I just thought it had something to do with an old version or something, that’s why I wanted to know. Glad that wasn’t the case, though.
