While it's a good idea to automate the linting of the python code used for our tests, I think that it can be quite distracting when hacking on a NixOS test. I figured that it might be more convenient to add an option as a shortcut for this to avoid that everyone needs to dig into the test driver again.
To build the manual, you need Nix installed on your system (no need
for NixOS). To install Nix, follow the instructions at
https://nixos.org/nix/download.html
When you have Nix on your system, in the root directory of the project
(i.e., `nixpkgs`), run:
nix-build nixos/release.nix -A manual.x86_64-linux
When this command successfully finishes, it will tell you where the
manual got generated.
