[Nix-dev] How to configure neovim?

[Matthias Beyer]

Oh. My. God.

This is so embarrassing.

I didn't install neovim in my user environment, but it was already in
my systemPackages array and the override didn't work because of this.

I found out because your example didn't work, so I just "grep"ed over
my .nix files and found out that there was neovim in two other files
definded... this is really really embarrassing...

Anyways, thanks for your help!
