man-db: explicitly pass section string
Work around a bug in the autoconf setup of man-db: The
list of default sections does not include section 0 (zero)
despite ``./configure --help`` advertising it. This causes
header man pages (e. g. time.h from package posix_man_pages)
to be ignored by man(1):

    $ file /run/current-system/sw/share/man/man0p/time.h.0p.gz
    /run/current-system/sw/share/man/man0p/time.h.0p.gz: gzip compressed data, from Unix
    $ man 0p time.h
    No manual entry for 0p
    No manual entry for time.h

Override the default (as defined in m4/man-arg-sections.m4)
until this is fixed upstream.

Build Status Code Triagers Badge

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.
