qt: puts NixOS systemd on non-NixOS distro path
I use arch (btw) + home-manager on flakes. When stylix is enabled it makes systemd part unusable, especially things like run0, resolvectl etc: Failed to execute /run/current-system/sw/bin/pkttyagent: No such file or directory. running which run0 gives /home/admin/.nix-profile/bin/run0 and this occurs with all systemd pieces, altering fhs with nix's systemd.
Toggling stylix.enable = false; fix this behavior
Here's my flake.nix:

};
stylix = {
url = "github:danth/stylix";
inputs.nixpkgs.follows = "nixpkgs";
inputs.home-manager.follows = "home-manager";
};
};
outputs = {nixpkgs, home-manager, nixgl, stylix, ... }:

i did some searches of the codebase, and Stylix itself never seems to be directly interacting with systemd. some targets, though, use home-manager options which make systemd services. going through home-manager's implementation of each of these services, i didn't see anything out of the ordinary that should've caused this to happen.
for debugging, consider disabling stylix.autoEnable and instead enable targets you need manually. if you still have problems, note that the hyprpaper target, which i assume you want to use given that you use hyprland, utilizes a systemd service through home-manager.
i'm not yet sure what is causing your problem, but hopefully some information about enabling and disabling specific targets will shed some light.
yes, adding targets.qt.enable = false; removes systemd doppelganger. I am not sure should I close this issue, maybe I'll go deeper in that module and find some workaround

great sleuthing, that narrows it down a lot.
I am not sure should I close this issue
leave it open as this is unexpected behavior
maybe I'll go deeper in that module and find some workaround
i'll look into the Stylix module itself and try to solve the problem at its source rather than requiring people use workarounds, but it'd be great if you still took a look. if you find anything while looking into a workaround, please share it here
@Mikilio would you give this a look? i don't see anything obvious that would be causing this problem
turns out the main issue is about home-manager's qt kvantum, at least stylix module for qt contains it. Setting stylix.enable = false and adding this to home-manager:
qt = {
enable = true;
style.name = "kvantum";
platformTheme.name = "qtqc";
};
makes nix systemd on path. Commenting style.name fixes it. I opened an issue in home-manager repo

great information. i believe that precedent here is to leave upstream issues open here, but would you rename the issue to something like "qt: puts NixOS systemd on non-NixOS distro path" for future users?
the culprit is this: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/f9387c450afd6fcd99c5ba4bc8fdd899bd2610f8/pkgs/os-specific/linux/systemd/default.nix#L780
... and I don't know yet what to do about this
@Flameopathic this is super hard to fix tbh. and it's probably not gonna happen any time soon.

Alright. I don't know that this issue should be closed, though, as it is still absolutely an issue; we could logically close it as "Not Planned," but that goes against precedent AFAIK.
You may want to share your findings in the upstream issue.
we could add !targets.genericLinux.enable to hm qt's autoEnable to reduce the number of people who will run into this issue.

!targets.genericLinux.enableto hm qt's autoEnable to reduce the number of people who will run into this issue.
This option should be enabled by default and would essentially allow end-users hotfixing the upstream issue in the meantime. Should we provide this hotfix option or simply wait on upstream?
