Release shared lock before acquiring exclusive lock 
In principle, this should avoid deadlocks where two instances of Nix are
holding a shared lock on big-lock and are both waiting to get an
exclusive lock.

However, it seems like `flock(2)` is supposed to do this automatically,
so it's not clear whether this is actually where the problem comes from.

On Linux and macOS the easiest way to install Nix is to run the following shell command (as a user other than root):

$ curl -L https://nixos.org/nix/install | sh

Information on additional installation methods is available on the Nix download page.

Building And Developing

See our Hacking guide in our manual for instruction on how to build nix from source with nix-build or how to get a development environment.
