When you evaluate nixos/tests/simple.nix, you'll run into an infinite
recursion since 41b140cb25a2e10d94107393bd41509564f2fb82.
The reason is that udisks2 now pulls in gnupg because it now depends on
libblockdev, which in turn depends on volume_key and that depends on
gnupg.
Nevertheless, it's not the real reason, because this only means, that
since gnupg is now pulled into the closure of a basic nixos
configuration the real problem becomes visible:
In nixos/modules/config/no-x-libs.nix there is an overlay which does
something like this:
nixpkgs.overlays = singleton (const (super: {
pinentry = super.pinentry_ncurses;
}));
Now since pinentry_ncurses is already using pinentry.override we get an
infinite recursion because now the pinentry attribute refers to
pinentry_ncurses, which by itself is again referring to pinentry.
This is solved by using the self.pinentry.override instead, so that the
override used by pinentry_ncurses doesn't use the attribute from the
overlay.

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-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.
