[Nix-dev] Install Nix on OSX, install nixops -> runs python2.7-pytest tests

[Maarten Hoogendoorn]

After I encountered this problem, I checked the channel (it was "unstable")
and ran nix-channel --update. It did not make any difference w.r.t. running
these tests. I expected this, since I saw that the installation script
pulled an up to date channel definition during installation.

Just to make sure that you have all information: I just grabbed this wiped
(no other dev tools present) macbook from a bookshelve at the office, and
installed nix and nixops directly.
