Using that repo, I have been able to reach what I was looking for: my system config uses configuration.nix, just for the system, and internet facing stuff, where I really want to follow the release channel to make sure I use the latest.
For my user stuff, I now have a config.nix: $ cat ~/.config/nixpkgs/config.nix # nix-env -i all # https://github.com/kamilchm/.nixpkgs/blob/master/config.nix with import <nixpkgs> {}; { allowUnfree = true; packageOverrides = pkgs_: with pkgs_; { eterm = import ./eterm { inherit (pkgs) stdenv fetchurl pkgconfig imlib2 libast; libX11 = xorg.libX11; libXext = xorg.libXext; libXaw = xorg.libXaw; }; all = with pkgs; buildEnv { name = "all"; paths = [ eterm vlc ]; }; }; } where the vlc is being pulled from the system channel, but the Eterm is being built with my modified version of the original, to include the unicode bits: $ cat ~/data/nixos/user/eterm/default.nix { stdenv, fetchurl , libX11, libXext, libXaw , pkgconfig, imlib2, libast }: stdenv.mkDerivation rec { name = "eterm-${version}"; version = "0.9.6"; srcName = "Eterm-${version}"; src = fetchurl { url = "http://www.eterm.org/download/${srcName}.tar.gz";; sha256 = "0g71szjklkiczxwzbjjfm59y6v9w4hp8mg7cy99z1g7qcjm0gfbj"; }; configureFlags = "--enable-multi-charset=utf-8"; buildInputs = [ libX11 libXext libXaw pkgconfig imlib2 ]; propagatedBuildInputs = [ libast ]; meta = with stdenv.lib; { description = "Terminal emulator"; homepage = "http://www.eterm.org";; license = licenses.bsd2; maintainers = [ maintainers.AndersonTorres ]; platforms = platforms.linux; }; } I install all of the above with nix-env -i all, as a user - so this is, if I understand correcly, per-user as you are seeking too. Does that make sense?
