Previously only the line numbers of a giant, internally generated XML file were printed, without any kind of debuggability. Now at least the mentioned lines are printed with a little bit of surrounding context (to have something to grep for). ``` manual-combined.xml:4863: element para: Relax-NG validity error : Did not expect element para there 4859 <chapter xmlns="http://docbook.org/ns/docbook" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude" version="5.0" xml:id="sec-writing-modules"> 4860 4861 <title>Writing NixOS Modules</title> 4862 4863 <para>NixOS has a modular system for declarative configuration.

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-17.09 for the latest
release and nixos-unstable for the latest successful build of master:
% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-17.09
For pull-requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master.
NixOS Linux distribution source code is located inside
nixos/ folder.
