nix-env does not read configuration.nix. If you want that, put your packageOverrides in ~/.nixpkgs/config.nix instead. I've done the same mistake myself. I think it is a bit confusing that nix-env ignores the system-wide packageOverrides. I think it would be better if it merged those packageOverrides (if possible). - Bjørn
