--- Comment #1 from Michel Alexandre Salim <[email protected]> ---
Note:
- the Emacs-related patch has not been submitted upstream (unlike the other,
Fedora-related commits in patch0) - will ask upstream to pull them after the
review process is OKed, as Fedora reviewers are likely more familiar with our
Emacs packaging guidelines

- This uses a top-level directory (/nix). It's not strictly speaking necessary,
but without that one can not use any pre-built Nix binary packages, which all
install to /nix/store -- and thus severely reduce the usefulness of nix (think
of macports and fink and the dearth of binary packages there)

- to try using this, after installation try doing the following:

  $ nix-channel --add
http://nixos.org/releases/nixpkgs/channels/nixpkgs-unstable/
  (as root)
  # nix-channel --update
  (as any user. might need to start a new login shell first, or source
   /etc/profile.d/nix.sh first)
  $ nix-env -iA nixpkgs.bsdgames
  or the smallest possible package:
  $ nix-env -iA nixpkgs.hello
