Hi Michael,

In fact names don’t matter with Nix.  Each package is basically a
function that returns an attribute set and derivation or store path.
This result is a first-class object in the Nix language, so it can be
assigned to any variable, named however you like, and passed around.

Thanks,
Ludo’.
