When using the Nix Package Manager on Debian 11, I have seen that it doesn’t automatically create .desktop files for GUI programs. This would have been fine if I was using nix to install one or two programs, but I was looking forward to use it a regular package manager. Does anyone know how to automate the process?

    Ive barely used Nix, so i cant be of more help than this, but IIRC the .desktop files are created elsewhere. Like inside the nix config folder or something like that
