Permission denied (publickey).
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

Please make sure you have the correct access rights
and the repository exists.

This happens after upgrading to 16.09. Have to read the changelog probably to fix this ^^.

trace: warning: The option definition `services.xserver.startGnuPGAgent' in `/etc/nixos/configuration.nix' no longer has any effect; please remove it.
See the 16.03 release notes for more information.

Three things:

  • it's 16.09
  • how to get the agent back?
  • there are no notes about this in the manual?
