Silly nixpkgs mirror, totally harmless :3

First, The patch is outdated, I failed to find it anywhere in the mirror repos. Second, the build fails, and while it may be "fixed" by ad-hoc patching (it appears to simply need some missing includes), this would mean shipping a potentially insecure software package. Given that the only reason to use grsecurity is security, this is both misleading and exposes users to undue risk. Finally, the build has been broken for quite a long time with no complaints, leading me to believe that the number of actual users is quite low. |

Nixpkgs is a collection of packages for the Nix package manager. It is periodically built and tested by the hydra build daemon as so-called channels. To get channel information via git, add nixpkgs-channels as a remote:
% git remote add channels git://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs-channels.git
For stability and maximum binary package support, it is recommended to maintain
custom changes on top of one of the channels, e.g. nixos-15.09
for the latest
release and nixos-unstable
for the latest successful build of master:
% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-15.09
For pull-requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master
.
NixOS linux distribution source code is located inside
nixos/
folder.
