- Use the latest Nix version 1.11.14. - Attempts to download the Nix installation tarball from http://nixos.org redirect to https these days, which wget doesn't support unless OpenSSL is available. - Use addgroup and adduser commands to create the Nix build users. - Link the Nix profile script into /etc/profile.d, where it's run automatically. - Dropped installation of bash and tar. Neither tool is essential for running Nix. Use the command "docker build -t nix . && docker run -it --rm nix sh -" to build and run the Nix docker container. |

Nix, the purely functional package manager
Nix is a new take on package management that is fairly unique. Because of its purity aspects, a lot of issues found in traditional package managers don't appear with Nix.
To find out more about the tool, usage and installation instructions, please read the manual, which is available on the Nix website at http://nixos.org/nix/manual.
