@cindex Nix, compatibility
|
||||
When a working installation of @url{https://nixos.org/nix/, the Nix package
|
||||
manager} is available, you
|
||||
can instead configure Guix with @code{--disable-daemon}. In that case,
|
||||
Nix replaces the three dependencies above.
|
||||
|
||||
Guix is compatible with Nix, so it is possible to share the same store
|
||||
between both. To do so, you must pass @command{configure} not only the
|
||||
same @code{--with-store-dir} value, but also the same
|
||||
@code{--localstatedir} value. The latter is essential because it
|
||||
specifies where the database that stores metadata about the store is
|
||||
located, among other things. The default values for Nix are
|
||||
@code{--with-store-dir=/nix/store} and @code{--localstatedir=/nix/var}.
|
||||
Note that @code{--disable-daemon} is not required if
|
||||
your goal is to share the store with Nix.
