The previous approach of trying to make both the `override` mechanism from `mkDerivation` and the `overrideScope'` mechanism from `newScope` work together resulted in hard to understand code, and there was a bug where once overridden packages would lose the changes on next override with `packageOverrides`. It's not ideal still, because Lisps created by `mkDerivation` will lose their `pkgs` after using `override`. |
