Also, I managed to manually download the files myself via archive.org, but I couldn't manage to get nix to use the file. I had muck with /etc/hosts in order to fool nix into downloading from a different server. Was there a directory that I could have just put it to get nix to use it automatically?
One solution is nix-prefetch-url. It will fetch specified url and add file to /nix/store/HASH-filename. After that nix-env is able to find this file. As far as I know, there is no directory like /usr/portage/distfiles in Gentoo.
First time I've met this problem I didn't know about nix-prefetch-url and assigned IP of www.bootsplash.de to my computer... -- Yura mailto: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ nix-dev mailing list [email protected] https://mail.cs.uu.nl/mailman/listinfo/nix-dev
