Just like Nautilus (see #29970), GNOME Control Center also uses gnome-desktop for generating thumbnails. In particular, it tries to make a thumbnail from a file choosen as a profile picture, and when it does not succeed, it will not allow that file to be chosen. Of course, whithout a thumbnailer, it will always fail. https://github.com/GNOME/gnome-control-center/blob/43129a1cfd30374c3ff45c54eae9ee5cd68ae1b6/panels/user-accounts/um-photo-dialog.c#L190-L192 Since gnome-desktop scans `thumbnailers` directories under the paths in `XDG_DATA_DIRS`, gdk-pixbuf had to be added to the path to provide access to image thumbnailer.
Nixpkgs is a collection of packages for the Nix package manager. It is periodically built and tested by the hydra build daemon as so-called channels. To get channel information via git, add nixpkgs-channels as a remote:
% git remote add channels git://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs-channels.git
For stability and maximum binary package support, it is recommended to maintain
custom changes on top of one of the channels, e.g. nixos-17.03 for the latest
release and nixos-unstable for the latest successful build of master:
% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-17.03
For pull-requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master.
NixOS linux distribution source code is located inside
nixos/ folder.
