* checks using package providing the nix-daemon that we'll be using * made optional (unlike some other config checks) "just in case": since this requires running the new Nix on the builder, this won't work in a few (AFAIK very uncommon) situations such as cross-compiling NixOS or using `include` directives in nix.conf This does rely on Nix2 but not by the builder. Since we only offer Nix2+ in-tree this should be fine, and may otherwise be required anyway.
*** NixOS *** NixOS is a Linux distribution based on the purely functional package management system Nix. More information can be found at http://nixos.org/nixos and in the manual in doc/manual.
