woops, reverted. I don't see the vagrant-cloud post-processor

Oh right, the project doesn't cross-compile right now, it has to be executed on a linux machine

Does anyone want to try out https://github.com/nix-community/nixos-generators/pull/50 ? You will have to also checkout nixpkgs to the associated PR and then build the .box file

Clone https://github.com/nix-community/nixos-generators/pull/50 and https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/76071 Then in the nixos-generators, override the `configuration.nix` to ``` { config, lib, pkgs, modulesPath, ... }: { documentation.man.enable = false; documentation.nixos.enable = false; sound.enable = false;...

thanks, fixed in https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/76071/commits/686125dbf9e1b5e933d3e74a7843bd9b1939d272 You will need a Linux remote builder to produce a compatible image. Do you know how to set that up?

You can run the command on macOS if you have a Linux remote builder machine setup. You will have to add `./nixos-generate -I nixpkgs=../nixpkgs/ -f vagrant-virtualbox --system linux-x86_64`. Or run...

I'm afraid there are going to be many rounds to trial. For the first issue, I think giving more RAM to the VirtualBox VM should solve it. The second issue...

Normally I would expect to be able to `nix-build` the repo top-level. If additional arguments are introduced it's going to make harder to provide defaults for all of them.

doh, nevermind. I was still thinking of `{ pkgs, lib, ...}` as the recommended `default.nix` arguments.

How about we introduce multiple types of repositories? Instead of cramming everything into one. * `singlePackage` for a single package. For example https://github.com/direnv/direnv * `packageSet` for a package set like...
