Motivation for this change

Some dotnet packages have to be installed as tools, which does not work in the current state:

$ dotnet tool install  -g dotnetsay
    
Failed to create shell shim for tool 'dotnetsay': Failed to create tool shim for command 'dotnetsay': Access to the path '/home/bara/.dotnet/tools/dotnetsay' is denied.
Tool 'dotnetsay' failed to install.

There are multiple problems:

Notify maintainers

Thank you for your contributions.
This has been automatically marked as stale because it has had no activity for 180 days.
If this is still important to you, we ask that you leave a comment below. Your comment can be as simple as "still important to me". This lets people see that at least one person still cares about this. Someone will have to do this at most twice a year if there is no other activity.
Here are suggestions that might help resolve this more quickly:

  1. Search for maintainers and people that previously touched the
    related code and @ mention them in a comment.
  2. Ask on the NixOS Discourse. 3. Ask on the #nixos channel on
    irc.freenode.net.

With the other two issues fixed, setting DOTNET_ROOT is the only one left.
For the dirty work, I have added this to my profile:

# set DOTNET_ROOT
if which dotnet > /dev/null; then
    export DOTNET_ROOT=$(dirname $(realpath $(which dotnet)))
fi

the environment variable can also be set with nix-shell or for packaging with wrapProgram eg

wrapProgram $out/bin/dotnetsay --set DOTNET_ROOT ${runtimePackage}

It is good enough now, so I am closing this.
