# This script extends nixpkgs with mozilla packages.

# First it imports the <nixpkgs> in the environment and depends on it
# providing fetchFromGitHub and lib.importJSON.
#
# After that it loads a pinned release of nixos-unstable and uses that as the
# base for the rest of packaging. One can pass it's own pkgsPath attribute if
# desired, probably in the context of hydra.
