Currently, a self-extracting archive created by makeself will fail to properly execute on NixOS because the boilerplate Bash code it uses to clean up the temporary directory it extracted its contents into assumes that the `rm` command is installed at `/bin/rm`, which is not the case on NixOS. This commit, a backport of a pull request I made to the upstream repository at megastep/makeself#142, fixes the issue by causing the boilerplate code to call `rm` without specifying an absolute path, which allows the version of `rm` from one's current Nix environment to be used instead. |

Nixpkgs is a collection of packages for the Nix package manager. It is periodically built and tested by the Hydra build daemon as so-called channels. To get channel information via git, add nixpkgs-channels as a remote:
% git remote add channels https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs-channels.git
For stability and maximum binary package support, it is recommended to maintain
custom changes on top of one of the channels, e.g. nixos-18.03 for the latest
release and nixos-unstable for the latest successful build of master:
% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-18.03
For pull-requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master.
NixOS Linux distribution source code is located inside
nixos/ folder.
