No, you need to be root to do chroot builds.
This is unfortunately a problem: Nix is advertised to work in non-root

That's not going to happen because there are any number of NSS modules that we
can't possibly all add to stdenv.
Indeed, I was not thinking about making it part of stdenv by default.
What about enrich stdenv ( through config.nix or

Ah, sorry, I'm not really familiar with nss. Does the libnss_sss
version have to match what's installed system-wide, rather than e.g.
being a build input?
I would say no.
It need to be verified but it is very likely that any libnss_sss version

Do you have any elegant way in Nix to add a module / modify the stdenv

The Firefox issue turned into
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/1868, which was closed when it
was decided a wrapper that sets LD_LIBRARY_PATH could fix it. Should
the issue get re-opened? Was that never implemented, or does it not
solve the problem?

Also, doesn't fetchgit produce fixed-output derivations*, meaning

I would say, it does not solve the problem.
If adding the system libnss_sss path to the LD_LIBRARY_PATH can be an
acceptable solution for firefox, I think it is not for fetchgit/git.
Adding libnss_sss to the LD_PATH as requirement for any invocation of
igt would make any build using fetchgit
Hi Eleco,
Thank you for your reply.

I am currently evaluating Nix for software deployment in a quite large
