The package is listed as [\_1password](https://search.nixos.org/packages?channel=22.11&show=_1password&from=0&size=50&sort=relevance&type=packages&query=1password). When I try to install it I get:

```auto
error: path '/nix/store/kx4vixac7vzcp0qywjmmd3xdb1jdvxi7-1password-cli-2.15.0' does not exist and cannot be created

```

Maybe this is an issue related to the special package name? Thanks

Hi @etorreborre - looking into this there are two related issues. The first issue is that the `_1password` package is “unfree”, and the second is that the catalog entry for this package is trying to serve up a path that does not exist in the NixOS binary cache.

A workaround would be to install the package from its nixpkgs derivation, while setting the env variable override to allow the building of unfree packages:

```auto
NIXPKGS_ALLOW_UNFREE=1 flox install 'nixpkgs#_1password'

```

We are working to build a better experience around the use of unfree packages and really appreciate your feedback - many thanks!

Thanks Robin, I didn’t know that unfree packages were a thing 🙂
