Nix tries to import ./profiles/system

[Strix]

Im trying to add a profile system to my flake.
But it tries to import ./profiles/system,
And for home-manager ./profiles/home,
(Please refer to my git repo, i have it configured with:

• profile=“rpi”
• subprofile=“usb_otg”
• system="aarch64-linux
  ).
  Im running nixos on an rpi5, you can see how i generated the sd-image in the repo.

@Strix

Please refer to my git repo

Welcome! I’d like to take a look at your repository, but there’s a problem with the hyperlink you posted. Can you post it again?

[maksim]

I think they accidentally used the wrong slashes, here’s the link: GitHub - Strix-Vyxlor/nix-config: my nix configuration

(see their raw message)

[bbjubjub]

The issue is: in profiles/rpi/usb_otg/configuration.nix, you import system/hardware/mesa.nix and friends with two levels of ../. You need 3: ../../../system/hardware/mesa.nix. Hence why profiles/system, that is profiles/rpi/usb_otg/../../system isn’t found.
