I should also add that you could just as easily check out the revision of the stable channel if you prefer (currently 676e8d7, found at https://nixos.org/channels/nixos-14.12/).

I've done it recently by installing NixOps directly from Hydra using "nix-install-package", and then using NixOps with a clone of nixpkgs/master in my NIX_PATH (rather than a clone of joelteon/master). > > Here are some instructions I wrote for doing so: > https://gist.github.com/henrytill/ce67b98a5e65452705f5 > > The only thing I would add to these instructions is that you will get more binaries from cache.nixos.org if you check out your clone of nixpkgs at the same revision as nixos-unstable (currently db75b5d, found at https://nixos.org/channels/nixos-unstable/), and, as a result, "nixops deploy" will be a much quicker process. > > -Henry > > > > On Wed, Jan 28, 2015 at 4:28 PM, Vladimír Čunát <[email protected]> wrote: > > > > Hi. > > > > On 01/28/2015 08:00 AM, Andreas Bernauer wrote: > >> > >> error: a ‘x86_64-linux’ is required to build > >> ‘/nix/store/6giy9b7xg90p8pqm6f056jqdwdx36jj6-stdenv-linux-boot.drv’, but > >> I am a ‘x86_64-darwin’ > > > > > > (Note: I know very little about NixOps, so I may not be accurate.) > > You are attempting to build *linux* packages on a darwin machine. You can deploy that way, but you need to add a x86_64-linux machine that will build the stuff (even a virtual one).
