[Nix-dev] Checksum error then everything builds from source

[Richard Wallace]

Oh, that was the problem.  I checked after doing `nix-channel --update` and
the file `~/.nix-defexpr/channels/binary-caches/nixpkgs` contained `
http://nixos.org/binary-cache/`. But it looks like it was being ignored,
for whatever reason.

Thanks!
Rich
