Problem
-------
We resolve symlinks from inside `/nix/store/HASH-home-manager-files`
into the nix store as `/nix/store/HASH-DRVNAME` which does not match
the pattern.
This happened to me because I pull in some repos in via `home.file`.
The `home-manager-files` derivation links to the repo's derivation in
the nix store. For example:
let nanorcs = fetchFromGitHub {
owner = "scopatz";
repo = "nanorc";
…
}; in [
{
target = ".nano";
source = nanorcs;
}
{
target = ".nanorc";
source = "${nanorcs}/nanorc";
}
]
Solution
--------
Call `readlink` without `-e` to obtain only the first redirection from
`~` to `/nix/store/HASH-home-manager-files`.
