greetings,

If I enable this:
https://github.com/fractalide/fractal_workbench/blob/master/service.nix#L72

I get

$ sudo nixos-rebuild test -I fractalide=/home/stewart/dev/fractalide/fractalide
[sudo] password for stewart:
building Nix...
building the system configuration...
error: attribute ‘workbench’ missing, at
/home/stewart/dev/fractalide/fractals/fractal_workbench/service.nix:72:13
(use ‘--show-trace’ to show detailed location information)

why can't I add` uid = config.ids.uids.workbench;`?

---

I'm trying to debug a permission problem in that the application
doesn't have permission to access the database.
