Hi Guys. I have installed the RPM (actually built for fedora 19) on my newly installed opensuse machine, and was hoping to get some help finalising the installation.
I want to understand as much of the nix system as possible. But thought I would do the RPM installation to start with, and move to a manual installation from source down the track. The error I am getting is this.... matt@linux-5ggd:~> nix-channel --update downloading Nix expressions from ` http://releases.nixos.org/nixpkgs/nixpkgs-14.02pre37547.75f97f5/nixexprs.tar.xz'. ..

Feel free to put me on the right path if this isn't the correct question to be asking :) Thank you. Matt.
