    • macOS
    • other Linux distributions
  • Tested via one or more NixOS test(s) if existing and applicable for the change (look inside nixos/tests)
  • Tested compilation of all pkgs that depend on this change using nix-shell -p nixpkgs-review --run "nixpkgs-review wip"
  • Tested execution of all binary files (usually in ./result/bin/)
  • Determined the impact on package closure size (by running nix path-info -S before and after)
  • Ensured that relevant documentation is up to date

running the test gives me this:

The panel.sh script path is hardcoded in the provided autostart script.
For me, this is not a big deal as I suppose that anyone using such window manager will make her own configuration.
This should be fixed upstream, but I can make a patch for it, like:

patchPhase = ''
  substituteInPlace share/autostart --replace /etc $out/etc
'';

But even with this patch, the script will fail with this message: This script requires the textwidth tool of the dzen2 project. and I don't want to include such false dependencies in the package's closure.
They could be added to the test though:

environment.systemPackages = [ pkgs.dzen2 ];

Is this what you noticed or did I miss something else?

(I found a comment #For guix while digging the provided script, and that made me happy.)
