Why does the nixpkgs/nix-unstable Docker image not have nixos-rebuild or systemctl?
$ docker run --tty --interactive nixpkgs/nix-unstable
bash-5.2# nixos-rebuild
bash: nixos-rebuild: command not found
bash-5.2# systemctl
bash: systemctl: command not found
bash-5.2#
Even if that's expected for nixpks/nix-unstable, would you know why it's also the case for nixos/nix, which might be intended as a full NixOS install?
(I'm not sure what the difference between these images are, or what their intended for.)
I asked similarly on Stack Overflow:
