Ok, maybe not everywhere, but at least in all my docker directories and some repo directories.
The symlink points to /nix/store/
This is what’s in the target directory:
result
├── lib
│ └── locale
│ └── locale-archive
├── nix-support
│ └── setup-hook
└── share
└── i18n
└── SUPPORTED
How do I get it to stop creating this ‘result’ symlink all over the place? My google-fu failed to find me an answer.
-- A little more info for clarity: I’m currently running on Ubuntu, I used nix-env to install some apps in the past. What other info is relevant?
Are you using
nix-buildornix builda lot? These create result-symlinks to the resulting store-path in order to make it easier to access immediately after the build. They can be safely removed btw.
