* nix: add options 'nixPath' and 'keepOldNixPath'
By default, the system value for $NIX_PATH is kept as a fallback.
To completely override the system value for $NIX_PATH:
nix.keepOldNixPath = false;
* nix: add more tests
* nix: add a declarative alternative to Nix channels
This adds a new option, 'nix.channels'. It's the Nix channels equivalent
of the 'nix.registry' option, and compatible with pre-Flake Nix tooling
including nix-env and nix-shell. Like 'nix.registry', this option is
useful for pinning Nix channels.
Channels defined in the new option can coexist with channels introduced
through the nix-channel command. If the same channel exists in both, the
one from Home Manager will be prioritized.
* nix: add news entry
* nix: make channels respect use-xdg-base-directories
* nix: remove 'with lib;'

Adds a module to enable managing Remmina, an RDP client, with a Home
Manager module, providing a systemd service and mimetype integration
that can be disabled if so desired.
Nixpkgs has recently made a few major changes to its
xdg-desktop-portal package, which silently breaks our module here:
- The NIXOS_XDG_DESKTOP_PORTAL_CONFIG_DIR variable patch has been
removed (in favor of putting portal configurations in /etc or
XDG_CONFIG_HOME).
- A new variable, NIX_XDG_DESKTOP_PORTAL_DIR, was introduced in a
patch to avoid setting XDG_DESKTOP_PORTAL_DIR (which also affected
portal configuration reading, not only portal definitions)
I updated our module to match the changes, but this breakage also made
me revisit this module and look into some improvements.
Long story short, I think it's worth it to make it more similar to the
NixOS one, as it will make behavior more predictable and consistent.
The main change is relying on the upstream linked systemd
unit (instead of using systemd.user.services), and setting the
environment variables globally instead of scoping it to the unit, as
it's a very global thing anyway.
When a non-directory, such as a file or a dead symlink, already exists,
mkdir -p fails with "cannot create directory ‘...’: File exists".
This is a problem when, for example, a symlink points to a directory on
a filesystem that isn't mounted yet.
The `run` function export was removed in #4965. This broke the
expectation in this module that `run` would be available outside of
main activation script, as `$DRY_RUN_CMD` once was.
Fixes#4980
This adds a Boolean option `uninstall`. When enabled this option will
reset side-effecting configurations to their "empty" state. The intent
is that this will cause the activation script to remove all managed
files and packages.
Doing it this way should hopefully be more robust than the previous
solution. It also allows a somewhat more convenient uninstall process
when using Flakes; put `uninstall = true` in your existing
configuration and then do a switch.
Also add simple uninstall test in CI test job.
