# it's an impurity that touches way more than i need and tends to cause hard-to-debug eval issues
# when it goes wrong. should i port my `nix-shell` scripts to something more tailored to my uses
# and then delete `nixpkgs-overlays`?

# XXX(2024-09-02): nix 2.24.4 errors when nixpkgs-overlays includes a symlink component:
# "error: path '/home/colin/dev' is a symlink"
# apparently nix has to explicitly handle symlinks in every place it might encounter them,
# so the fixes inside nix for this are manual and fragile. dereference it ourselves:
"${config.sane.fs."/home/colin/dev".symlink.target}/nixos/integrations/nixpkgs/nixpkgs-overlays.nix"
];
# ensure new deployments have a source of this repo with which they can bootstrap.
