[Nix-dev] implementation specific dependencies

[Christopher Howard]

Hi. This is an educational question. I've been using nix pm for a few days
now, but all the packages I have been using are command-line, or simpler
graphics apps like emacs. I am curious: how does the nix approach (exact
dependencies of each package never change) handle stuff like opengl, which
is a dependency of a lot of software, but is expected to be implemented
differently on each computer system. (In this case, depending on what
graphics card and drivers you use.)
