Hi Marc,
I've added it to my configuration.nix but it doesn't seem to work:
# nix-repl '<nixpkgs>'
Welcome to Nix version 1.6.1. Type :? for help.
Loading '<nixpkgs>'...
Added 3740 variables.
nix-repl> pkgs.flashplayer.name
error: user-thrown exception: package 'flashplayer-11.2.202.350' in
<<unknown-file>> has an unfree license, refusing to evaluate
I would guess that would be because nix-repl doesn't even parse
configuration.nix?
