I was getting the following error building tide from Melpa: nix-build -E '(import <nixpkgs> {}).emacs25WithPackages (p: [p.melpaPackages.tide])' File tide-20170509.1134.tar is large (10.2M), really open? (y or n) Error reading from stdin builder for ‘/nix/store/gs9ik7yf8iilsikkfing74i70m0diax3-emacs-tide-20170509.1134.drv’ failed with exit code 255 cannot build derivation ‘/nix/store/m3p080aani4rw82llp8nqk93cw2nvirk-emacs-with-packages-25.2.drv’: 1 dependencies couldn't be built Solution was to disable the large file warning threshold when installing packages. |

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-17.03
for the latest
release and nixos-unstable
for the latest successful build of master:
% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-17.03
For pull-requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master
.
NixOS linux distribution source code is located inside
nixos/
folder.
