You don't want to run nix without tests. If eg nix tests fails you're at risk. So how to disable tests for emacs only? try adding doCheck = false; to the emacs builder or commenting check phase. checkPhase = ":"; # : is a a short command returning 0 exit code. Does nix suppoprt disabling tests for gentoo only? Don't know. grep for doCheck to see how its done for other packages. Probably system is just linux and not "gentoo".
