I have a nvim, that doesnt match any config at all?

I’ve been trying for these past 5 days trying to search my problem, and trying to make my nixvim work, but whenever i do, a strange NeoVim config popup, but when i properly do ‘nix run’ in the flake the config stays perfect, so how could i substitute these strange config, because every time I type “nvim” it goes to the 1st image

instead of the second?

I am in the middle of college semester, so ignore the mess any questions I pick the specific part and send

notes: i’ve tried ‘which’, ‘whereis’, ‘type’, and the location is nvim: /nix/store/p67myfdq1mlyvyzyqgkkha2sa0qf02kf-system-path/bin/nvim


Share your config and whatever nix run command you tried.

ive tried ‘nix run.’, ive tried with my github too because it compiles my nixvim, but it doesnt transform my nvim input, but it doesnt not install

also i removed from my configuration.nix the nixvim input, and run, and garbage collect, and it finally unistalled the nvim,

update, aparently the config updated, but a day later :I, and every config that i input it aint update, its seems a little bit off, but it just a day later, updated to the yesterday version

you can run nvim -V3log.txt to debug the starting sequence. Look at readlink -f $(which nvim) , see if it’s a wrapper and if it sets the -u flag for instance

sorry, i didnt understand what u mean by nvim -V3log.txt , and when I ran readlink… it returned

❯ readlink -f $(which nvim)
/nix/store/d7847w7xj4i0i5yqknrx4rni90cszia7-neovim-0.11.0/bin/nvim

apparently my config only updates when i remove the nixvim option from environment_system_pkgs rebuild, and put it again, and then rebuild, it updates is this normal?

Can you please explain what you mean by this words?

Do you have your configuration online available?

What exactly are you putting as nixvim in system packages? Should be something like

environment.systemPackages = [ inputs.nixvim-config.packages.${system}.default ];
