This effectively resets the attributes given at the point the main <nixpkgs> is imported and thus for example is also reading in stuff like ~/.nixpkgs/config.nix again, which might lead to unexpected results. We now only import <nixpkgs> now if the updater is auto-called (like in update.sh), otherwise the required attributes are passed by callPackage within the Chromium scope. I remember noting about this a while ago either on IRC or on GitHub, but I can't find it right now, so thanks to @obadz for reminding me about this in #15225. Tested this by running the updater and also using: NIXPKGS_CONFIG=$(pwd)/broken.nix nix-instantiate --arg config {} -A chromium The contents of broken.nix were: EVALERR{ Signed-off-by: aszlig <aszlig@redmoonstudios.org> Fixes: #15225 |

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 git://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-16.03
for the latest
release and nixos-unstable
for the latest successful build of master:
% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-16.03
For pull-requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master
.
NixOS linux distribution source code is located inside
nixos/
folder.
