NixOS: some user-subscribed channels are not shown by `nix-channel --list`, how to remove them (unsubscribe)?
0
I am confused by the current state of my channel subscription on NixOS. It seems that I have a per-user subscription to nixos-17.03 and nixos-17.09:
$ nix-shell -p nix-info --run "nix-info -m"
- system: `"x86_64-linux"`
- host os: `Linux 4.19.13, NixOS, 18.09.1853.c2950341d03 (Jellyfish)`
- multi-user?: `yes`
- sandbox: `yes`
- version: `nix-env (Nix) 2.1.3`
- channels(alexey): `"nixos-17.03-17.03.1949.78e9665b48f, nixos-17.09-17.09.3238.e984f9e48e1"`
- channels(root): `"nixos-18.09.1853.c2950341d03"`
- nixpkgs: `/nix/var/nix/profiles/per-user/root/channels/nixos`

However, they are not shown with nix-channel --list, and I cannot remove them with nix-channel --remove:

Is something broken on my system, or what could be the explanation? How can I remove those per-user channels?

Guesstimate: have you ran nix-channel --update since dropping them? (not tested, etc.) You've dropped all channels from your user, according to the output.

I've just tried it, without and withsudo(by the way, not sure ifsudois needed), and also i didnixos-rebuild switch --upgrade, but they still show up.

With sudo you operate on root's channel list, without it you operate on the user's channel list. It might be bug that removing names doesn't really work. I certainly did replace channel URL while keeping the name and that works but it's something else.
