This actually will matter when I (soon) land cross-compilation support, and native deps are compiled for the build, instead of host, platform. But even now, it's good style do this, and one less thing to review later. The use of `$nativePkgs` is unfortunate, as it will need to be swapped out for `$crossPkgs` for build != host builds. This will just a temporarily cause pain, however, as eventually I will change stdenv to use a `$runPkgs` (or moral equivalent) in both case. Closes https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/26480. |

Nixpkgs is a collection of packages for the Nix package manager. It is periodically built and tested by the hydra build daemon as so-called channels. To get channel information via git, add nixpkgs-channels as a remote:
% git remote add channels git://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs-channels.git
For stability and maximum binary package support, it is recommended to maintain
custom changes on top of one of the channels, e.g. nixos-17.03 for the latest
release and nixos-unstable for the latest successful build of master:
% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-17.03
For pull-requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master.
NixOS linux distribution source code is located inside
nixos/ folder.
