+ (description
+ "Nix is a purely functional package manager. This means that it treats
+packages like values in purely functional programming languages such as
+Haskell—they are built by functions that don't have side-effects, and they
+never change after they have been built. Nix stores packages in the Nix
+store, usually the directory /nix/store, where each package has its own unique
+sub-directory.")
