Basically the title. I have Nixos running on a server that runs completely headless and while playing around today, I noticed that the rebuild takes longer than expected and apparently that’s because firefox gets compiled.

Now, I don’t have any GUI installed, and even if I had, I don’t see a reason to compile FF from source.

My packages are just Jellyfin, Samba, Gitea, Nextcloud, virt-manager. None of these should depend on FF.

    There’s a project nix-tree that lets you see the dependency trees of Nixos.

    Try that, (or post the output here). To see if firefox is referenced somewhere in the packages you’re using
