Partly this is understanding the split between Nix, Nixpkgs, and NixOS. You might not actually be rebuilding your changes to nixpkgs. This part of the manual explains this somewhat: http://nixos.org/nixos/manual/index.html#sec-getting-sources So, you may have to do: # nixos-rebuild switch -I nixpkgs=/my/sources/nixpkgs and hope everything builds and nothing breaks (if it does you can always do a rollback) > Well again I try to find the time to upload my changes as branch.

Yeah there's so many issues in Nixpkgs it's very easy to get lost. If there's no Nix developers using Kodi + Xbox360 it’s fairly likely it will get broken. _______________________________________________ nix-dev mailing list nix-dev@lists.science.uu.nl https://mailman.science.uu.nl/mailman/listinfo/nix-dev
