pkgs-lib/shell: sudo nixos-generate-config

[bb010g]

$ btrfs subvol show / >/dev/null; printf "%s\n" "$?"
ERROR: Could not search B-tree: Operation not permitted

Btrfs's ioctl() BTRFS_IOC_TREE_SEARCH requires elevation. btrfs subvol show <path> may be called by nixos-generate-config, and if btrfs subvol show <path> fails then nixos-generate-config fails.

Thanks for the PR! That sounds good to me.

We are actually in the process of completely moving the devos library to https://github.com/divnix/digga. So your change won't have any affect after #276 is merged.

It would be great if you could switch your PR to target digga instead. It should be the same idea except the change would have to go in src/pkgs-lib/shell.

If #276 will cause core to be based off of up-to-date digga, then could this still be merged to core here as a backport?

[blaggacao]

develop is probably going to be merged into core in a matter of minutes, so we are on kind of an implicit "freeze" on core at the moment.

your fix just made it in 634cfcb

Thank you :)
