Nixpkgs' channel currently can't move forward so long as there is a
trace in evaluating the top-level arguments. Which means that it isn't
possible to add a warning message to warn users of future package
removal.
So the only way forward appears to be just removing the alias
altogether.

For users of NixOS 18.03 and 19.03, NixOS defaults to Nix 2.0, but
|
|
supports using Nix 1.11 by setting <literal>nix.package =
|
|
pkgs.nix1;</literal>. If this option is set to a Nix 1.11 package, you
|
|
will need to either unset the option or upgrade it to Nix 2.0.

For users of NixOS 17.09, you will first need to upgrade Nix by setting

For users of a daemon-less Nix installation on Linux or macOS, you can

upgrade Nix by running <command>curl https://nixos.org/nix/install |

sh</command>, or prior to doing a channel update, running

<command>nix-env -iA nix</command>.

If you have already run a channel update and Nix is no longer able to

udev rules. As a consequence users of that module have to belong to the
