1. The preStart script ensures consistent ownership, even if the unbound user's uid has changed 2. The unbound daemon does not generate data that needs to be private to it, so it would not matter that a different service would end up owning its data (as long as unbound remains enabled, it should reclaim ownership soon enough anyway). Thus, there's no clear benefit to allocate a dedicated uid for the unbound service. This releases uid/gid 48. Also, because the preStart script creates the data directory, there's no need to specify a homedir or ask for its creation. |

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-16.03
for the latest
release and nixos-unstable
for the latest successful build of master:
% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-16.03
For pull-requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master
.
NixOS linux distribution source code is located inside
nixos/
folder.
