[Nix-dev] force nix-build without binary caches?

[Rob Vermaas]

Or use (taken from 'man nix.conf'):

       build-use-substitutes
           If set to true (default), Nix will use binary substitutes if
available. This option can be disabled to force
           building from source.

E.g. nix-build --option build-use-substitutes false

Cheers,
Rob
