There is a security issue when a build accidentally stores its $TMPDIR in some critical place, such as an RPATH. If TMPDIR=/tmp/nix-build-..., then any user on the system can recreate that directory and inject libraries into the RPATH of programs executed by other users. Since /build probably doesn't exist (or isn't world-writable), this mitigates the issue. |

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.
