Sandboxes cannot be nested, so if Nix's build runs inside a sandbox, it cannot use a sandbox itself. I don't see a clean way to detect whether we're in a sandbox, so use a test-specific hack. https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/1413
Nix, the purely functional package manager
Nix is a new take on package management that is fairly unique. Because of its purity aspects, a lot of issues found in traditional package managers don't appear with Nix.
To find out more about the tool, usage and installation instructions, please read the manual, which is available on the Nix website at http://nixos.org/nix/manual.
