Nix Packages collection & NixOS
3429d8cbbf
The only functional change here is that I've dropped unzip, because that dependency doesn't seem to be necessary at all. Despite the broken build state I've tried building and running The Ur-Quan Masters with an older nixpkgs revision and it works fine. Other than that there are no references in the source code for unzip except in the binary installer and some of the INSTALL files. The reason why I'm removing the "with pkgs.lib;" is that it makes it easier to quickly check for errors with "nix-instantiate --parse". Signed-off-by: aszlig <aszlig@nix.build> Cc: @jcumming |

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-17.09 for the latest
release and nixos-unstable for the latest successful build of master:
% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-17.09
For pull-requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master.
NixOS linux distribution source code is located inside
nixos/ folder.
