Add to Nixpkgs

[samuela]

Is there any way we could get this added to Nixpkgs? Doing so would greatly simplify the installation/setup/upgrade process.

I added comma to my NUR repo nur.repos.xe. You can install it by adding it to your configuration.nix with:

{
  nixpkgs.config.packageOverrides = pkgs: {
    nur = import (builtins.fetchTarball "https://github.com/nix-community/NUR/archive/master.tar.gz") {
      inherit pkgs;
    };
  };

  environment.systemPackages = [ pkgs.nur.repos.xe.comma ];
}

Or in a user account by adding this to your ~/.config/nixpkgs/config.nix:

{
  packageOverrides = pkgs: {
    nur = import (builtins.fetchTarball "https://github.com/nix-community/NUR/archive/master.tar.gz") {
      inherit pkgs;
    };
  };
}

And then running nix-env -iA nixpkgs.nur.repos.xe.comma. Either way should let you install/update this software without much issue.
