Reinstalling Nix seemed to work for whatever reason and I don't seem to have the permissions errors this time trying to install or run Nix packages.
But I have to run `source /run/current-system/profile/etc/profile.d/nix.sh' from a terminal every time to get Nix packages in my PATH. Is there a better way of doing this? Setting the PATH somewhere or running `/run/current-system/profile/etc/profile.d/nix.sh' from .profile or something? —Ben
