I’m trying to patch qt5ct and qt6ct with their kde patch, which im doing like so:
home.packages = with pkgs; [
kdePackages.qt6ct.overrideAttrs (finalAttrs: previousAttrs: {
patches = [
fetchpatch {
url = "https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/plain/qt6ct-shenanigans.patch?h=qt6ct-kde";
hash = "sha256-AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA=";
}
];
})
libsForQt5.qt5ct.override {
patches = [
fetchpatch {
url = "https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/plain/qt5ct-shenanigans.patch?h=qt5ct-kde";
hash = "sha256-AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA=";
}
];
}
];
but that im getting this error
error: A definition for option `home-manager.users.claymorwan.home.packages."[definition 10-entry 3]"' is not of type `package'. Definition values:
- In `/nix/store/2p2nainh0h91ijj2724bpg1pc1z8ska5-source/NixOS/modules/home/qt.nix': <function, args: {fetchurl, lib, mkDerivation, qmake, qtbase, qtsvg, qttools}>
To start with you need parens around the things in your list. Right now your list is like:
[ kdePackages.qt6ct.overrideAttrs (...) libsForQt5.qt5ct.override {...} ];So you want something like:
[ (kdePackages.qt6ct.overrideAttrs (...)) (libsForQt5.qt5ct.override {...}) ];o dam yea i had forgotten abt the parens, now i do get this error tho, also good to mention that both package doesn’t have any patches to beguin with
error: function 'anonymous lambda' called with unexpected argument 'patches' at /nix/store/kfcxqcxb9hcq6x33sg4cmwakbb1ifwg9-source/pkgs/tools/misc/qt5ct/default.nix:1:1: 1| { | ^ 2| mkDerivation,Maybe you need to use
overrideAttrsfor both packages? it doesn’t seem to take patches as an argumentyea that worked, now im getting this tho:

home-manager.users.claymorwan.fonts.fontconfig.configFile.fonts.textyea no idea why, only happens when i override these two packages
Are you sure that’s related to the packages? It says it’s evaluating font config.
well this only happens when i use the override on these packages so i suppose it is related
