Hi Eelco,

this doesn't work for me:

  $ nix-env --option binary-caches http://hydra.nixos.org -u \* --always
  [...]
  error: substituter
  
`/nix/store/96rgql0340rc6vyrwrb0p5jd7j9q017h-nix-1.2pre2910_b674665/libexec/nix/substituters/download-from-binary-cache.pl'
  failed: binary cache ‘http://hydra.nixos.org’ is not trusted (please add
  it to ‘trusted-binary-caches’ [http://nixos.org/binary-cache
  http://nixos.org/binary-cache] in /etc/nix/nix.conf)

The appropriate options are set in /etc/nix/nix.conf, though:

  $ cat /etc/nix/nix.conf

  binary-caches = http://nixos.org/binary-cache http://hydra.nixos.org
  trusted-binary-caches = http://nixos.org/binary-cache http://hydra.nixos.org

Just out of curiosity: how does the binary cache at
http://nixos.org/binary-cache differ from http://hydra.nixos.org?

Take care,
Peter
