[Nix-dev] Install texlive on 16.09

[laverne]

How do I install LaTeX on NixOS 16.09?

On 16.03, one could do `nix-env -iA nixos.texLive` to get it, but that entry is not in all-packages.nix anymore.

I took a stab at installing it with `nix-env -iA nixos.texlive.combined`. This churned for a long time and finally finished with this message


building path(s) ‘/nix/store/5avvm3s8mk8cvc8nr747mk589gs840lk-user-environment’

error: build of ‘/nix/store/g44z1cy57bqa9kflrw9l75n06rfm5pq8-user-environment.drv’ failed



I think that this is the wrong way to install what I want, but if it is, how does one resolve this issue?


Thanks,
Laverne
