I have no immediate answer for the first two questions, but to the third one: use nix-store --query --deriver /nix/store/path/to/file . This will print the source derivation. The derivation file contains information where it was built from, but in most cases it is sufficient to simply look at the file name. HTH Christian -- Dipl-Inf.
