== calls to dbus-update-activation-environment == | |||
Note that the default sway configuration template /etc/sway/config includes /etc/sway/config.d/*, | |||
and specifically includes /etc/sway/config.d/nixos.conf , which has the following contents: | |||
# Import the most important environment variables into the D-Bus and systemd | |||
# user environments (e.g. required for screen sharing and Pinentry prompts): | |||
exec dbus-update-activation-environment --systemd DISPLAY WAYLAND_DISPLAY SWAYSOCK XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP | |||
Likewise, the example configuration in the wiki creates a script /bin/dbus-sway-environment that attempts | |||
to call dbus-update-activation-environment. (Note, the dbus-sway-environment script might not | |||
be necessary given the inclusion of /etc/sway/config.d/nixos.conf.) | |||
However, neither of these attempts to execute | |||
dbus-update-activation-environment | |||
works unless dbus-update-activation-environment is in the | |||
path (e.g., unless there is a symlink /run/current-system/sw/bin/dbus-update-activation-environment | |||
pointing at the executable somewhere under /nix/store/). To get dbus-update-activation-environment | |||
and the other binaries from the dbus package into the general path, one should add pkgs.dbus | |||
to the environment.systemPackages list in configuration.nix. (If using home manager, this | |||
might be accomplished by other means.) |
