Motivation for this change

A trivial patch I frequently miss when testing SLNOS patches with upstream nixpkgs.

This allows one to access a package configured with overrides given in nixpkgs.config, e.g.:
nix-build ./nixos/default.nix -A pkgs.ffmpeg

Things done
  • Tested using sandboxing (nix.useSandbox on NixOS, or option build-use-sandbox in nix.conf on non-NixOS)
  • Built on platform(s)
    • NixOS
    • other Linux distributions
  • Tested via one or more NixOS test(s) if existing and applicable for the change (look inside nixos/tests)
  • Tested compilation of all pkgs that depend on this change using nix-shell -p nox --run "nox-review wip"
  • Tested execution of all binary files (usually in ./result/bin/)
  • Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.
