From a5919f4754be6f4a9fe091e0ee5538ad85af0050 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?UTF-8?q?Th=C3=A9ophane=20Hufschmitt?= Date: Wed, 13 Apr 2022 10:26:50 +0200 Subject: =?UTF-8?q?Move=20the=20default=20profiles=20to=20the=20user?= =?UTF-8?q?=E2=80=99s=20home?= MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Rather than using `/nix/var/nix/{profiles,gcroots}/per-user/`, put the user profiles and gcroots under `$XDG_DATA_DIR/nix/{profiles,gcroots}`. This means that the daemon no longer needs to manage these paths itself (they are fully handled client-side). In particular, it doesn’t have to `chown` them anymore (removing one need for root). This does change the layout of the gc-roots created by nix-env, and is likely to break some stuff, so I’m not sure how to properly handle that. --- src/nix/daemon.cc | 1 - 1 file changed, 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'src/nix') diff --git a/src/nix/daemon.cc b/src/nix/daemon.cc index c527fdb0a..19fbbf155 100644 --- a/src/nix/daemon.cc +++ b/src/nix/daemon.cc @@ -248,7 +248,6 @@ static void daemonLoop() querySetting("build-users-group", "") == "") throw Error("if you run 'nix-daemon' as root, then you MUST set 'build-users-group'!"); #endif - store.createUser(user, peer.uid); }); exit(0); -- cgit v1.2.3
