Some steps to (hopefully) help you fix your Nix install on OS X after an upgrade.

Apple Borked my Nix!

Ok, so you've had nix (home-manager) working fine. Then Apple tells you it's time to update.

Ok. Reboot. Oops. It has now broken your Nix setup. Here's some stuff to work through. YMMV.

Note: This is what worked for me, who was just using nix + home-manager. The upgrade that I last did that caused all these issues was 12.3.X > 12.4

dwm on os x [work in progress!]

Installing and configuring dwm on OS X

  1. Install XQuartz (http://xquartz.macosforge.org) which is the development version of the X11.app that ships with OS X, which means it is way more up to date. I have had some weird issues with X11.app v. 2.3-something. XQuartz 2.5.0 fixed that.

  2. Install dwm from Homebrew, brew install dwm. This makes a bunch of necessary tweaks to the DWM configuration.

  3. Add the following script to $PATH, name it dwm-launch and chmod 755:

    cd ~
