The "maxx" package recursively runs isExecutable on a bunch of files and since the change to use "readelf" instead of "file" a lot of errors like this one are printed during build: readelf: Error: Not an ELF file - it has the wrong magic bytes at the start While the isExecutable was never meant to be used outside of the autoPatchelfHook, it's still a good idea to silence the errors because whenever readelf fails, it clearly indicates that the file in question is not a valid ELF file.

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 https://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-18.03 for the latest
release and nixos-unstable for the latest successful build of master:
% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-18.03
For pull-requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master.
NixOS Linux distribution source code is located inside
nixos/ folder.
