Linux: Slackware 14.2
Nix: 1.11.4 built from SlackBuilds.org
I can successfully build the following packages:
cabal-install-1.24.0.2
cabal2nix-2.0.4
nix-1.11.6
nix-repl-1.11.6-2016-02-28
command i use
$ nix-env -i ghc
i later plan to further use input: nix-env -iA nixpkgs.haskell.myHaskellEnv
(i use the above in another system about 1 year ago, and successfull use it when ghc was 7.10)
