[Nix-dev] GNOME 3.18 is the default

[Luca Bruno]

Right now the gnome3 package set defaults to 3.18. It's been a long time
we had gnome 3.18, and given the recent unstable releases it was a good
time to switch.

However, many apps are not working as expected compared to 3.16.
Examples of broken apps are bijiben, gnome-maps, gnome-screenshot, ...

That said, you can switch back to gnome 3.16 at any time if you feel
there's anything blocking your workflow:

nixpkgs.config.packageOverrides = super: {
  gnome3 = pkgs.gnome3_18;
};

Please feel free to report an issue for any spotted bug or regression
about your new GNOME 3.18 experience on NixOS and non-NixOS.

Best regards,
