As stated by Sylvestre Ledru (@sylvestre) on Nov 22, 2017 at https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/31843#issuecomment-346372756 we have permission to use the official firefox branding. Fur purposes of documentation the statement of @sylvestre: > As the person who did part of the work described in the LWN article > and release manager working for Mozilla, I can confirm the statement > that I made in > https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=815006 > > @garbas shared with me the list of patches applied for the Nix package. > As they are just for portability and tiny modifications, they don't > alter the experience of the product. In parallel, Rok also shared the > build options. They seem good (even if I cannot judge the quality of the > packaging of the underlying dependencies like sqlite, png, etc). > Therefor, as long as you keep the patch queue sane and you don't alter > the experience of Firefox users, you won't have any issues using the > official branding. |

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.
