comments about installation:
nixos.org -> nixos -> Documentation -> "Nixpkgs manual" link.
- typo: "Thus, installation from binaries falls back on nstallation from source"
- (channels stable): is just outdated: That's correct. eventually it should also be noted
that its more likely to contain security vulnerabilities? Or does somebody
care and backport fixes !?
- 4.1 Basic package management:
Its told that manifest contain list of available binaries
However because the manifests are no longer downloaded I guess that the
/etc/nix/nix.conf's binary-caches setting is much more important to talk
about ?
I didn't find the doc source (?) - so I'm not sure how to improve it
other then notifying about it.
