The first ones seemed to repeat the contents of the manual, so I
initially didn't follow through; but now that you said, I tried again
and indeed the "pill 17" [3] seems to talk about packageOverrides.
Together with another linked article [4], it explains the 'x: with x
{' pattern very nice - thanks! But still doesn't seem to explain where
the later 'pkgs' inside it come from [5]? And what they contain? esp.
compared to their apparent siblings? (i.e. what's in 'pkgs_' vs.
what's in 'pkgs_.pkgs' IIUC?)
