I removed it and reinstalled it again.

Now the sympthom is different

$ nix-env -i InfTaRacket
error: selector ‘InfTaRacket’ matches no derivations

$ nix-env -i myRacket
error: selector ‘myRacket’ matches no derivations

$ nix-env -qa racket
racket-6.1.1
racket-6.1.1


BUT if I decomment the line

#name = "${pname}-${version}";

then this is the result

$ nix-env -qa racket
error: undefined variable ‘pname’ at "/home/me/.nixpkgs/config.nix":9:16
