This is the master branch of nixpkgs, initially pulled from commit 8debf2f9a63d54ae4f28994290437ba54c681c7b The intent of this repo is to be merged onto nixpkgs master. This will also be of help for https://git.suyu.dev/BoomMicrophone/suyu-nix-test which I will need in order for development (it will also be helpful to know what to do for setting up the environment for the master server. Currently I am focusing on this so I can actually see what is still missing) This repo will be removed once the PR to the nixpkgs github goes through

If the user tries to run a program that doesn't exist from Bash, the
program name is looked up in a database that maps to Nix package
names.  If it is found, we print out a message like:

  $ pdflatex
  The program ‘pdflatex’ is currently not installed. It is provided by
  several packages. You can install it by typing one of the following:
    nix-env -i tetex
    nix-env -i texlive-core

If the environment variable $NIX_AUTO_INSTALL is set, the command is
installed and executed automatically:

  $ hello --version
  The program ‘hello’ is currently not installed. It is provided by
  the package ‘hello’, which I will now install for you.
  installing `hello-2.8'
  hello (GNU hello) 2.8

To use this, you must currently manually put the SQLite programs
database in /var/lib/nixos/programs.sqlite.  In the future, this file
should be provided as part of the NixOS channel so it gets updated
automatically.  To get a test version:

  $ curl http://nixos.org/~eelco/programs.sqlite.xz | xz -d > /var/lib/nixos/programs.sqlite
