Correct way to install packages with Nixpacks

This didn't work for me:

[phases.setup]
nixPkgs = ["...", "shared-mime-info"]

But this did:

[phases.setup]
nixPkgs = ["...", "shared-mime-info"]
cmds = ["...", "sudo apt-get install -y shared-mime-info"]

Should't they be equivalent/redundant?

You can try

aptPkgs instead. nixPkgs pulls deps from the nixos store or whatnot

So they arnt equivalent

nixpackages and apt packages are different, yes. Replace nixPkgs with aptPkgs and it should work perfectly

thanks!

Using aptPkgs seems to work but not reflected on this summary.

🥴sorry. Time to rest and get a bit of sun
