cc #15558 Components are now part of the base install (previously it seems no components were included), which I believe mostly removes the need for the srcComponents bit. Debian is only other distro packaging this according to repology, and they don't include additional libraries which further suggests they're at least non-essential :). As for the Caneda/Libraries repository, copying these into the "libraries" directory with similar files does not cause them to be auto-registered anyway, as far as I can tell the application has a static list of components (in the source) and additional components need to be added using the GUI making bundling them a bit useless and misleading. caneda also now requires qt5 and doesn't appear to require either libxml2 or libxslt.
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-17.03 for the latest
release and nixos-unstable for the latest successful build of master:
% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-17.03
For pull-requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master.
NixOS linux distribution source code is located inside
nixos/ folder.
