Hi guys!
Im still new to nix and got most of the things working, but some basic nix-stuff simply refuses to cooperate, like nix-shell. For example, when I execute nix-env --upgrade '*', I get the following error
error: anonymous function at /home/marc/git/dotfiles/nixos/configuration.nix:1:1 called without required argument 'config'
at /nix/store/kr54vf122h27ck1n86x54f0x355dag6h-nixos-23.05/nixos/pkgs/top-level/default.nix:74:10:
73| if lib.isFunction config0
74| then config0 { inherit pkgs; }
| ^
75| else config0;
(use '--show-trace' to show detailed location information)
(Yes I know this is not the intended way of how you do this on nixos → just an example

My NIX_PATH is as follows:
❯ echo $NIX_PATH
nixos-config=/home/marc/git/dotfiles/nixos/configuration.nix:nixpkgs=/nix/var/nix/profiles/per-user/root/channels/nixos/nixpkgs
Additional info:
- This also applies for other commands, like
nix-shell --packages nano. - I symlinked the nixos folder (
/etc/nixos -> /home/marc/git/dotfiles/nixos) -
nixos-rebuild switchworks just fine - Nixos version 23.05
If there is any info that might help, I’ll be happy to provide. Thanks a lot for your efforts
