You can upgrade a 1.6.1 release from http://hydra.nixos.org/release/nix/nix-1.6.1 using nix-install-package. For instance, if you're on x86_64-linux: $ nix-install-package --non-interactive --url http://hydra.nixos.org/build/6695697/nix/pkg/nix-1.6.1-x86_64-linux.nixpkg If nothing else works, you can install from the binary tarball: $ bash <(curl https://nixos.org/nix/install) -- Eelco Dolstra | LogicBlox, Inc. | http://nixos.org/~eelco/ _______________________________________________ nix-dev mailing list nix-dev@lists.science.uu.nl http://lists.science.uu.nl/mailman/listinfo/nix-dev
