<p>nixpkgs#71127 is closed and not merged, but still recommended on the page</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>One of the offered solutions to frequent recompilation when using Oracle VirtualBox Extensions is:<br /> &lt;blockquote&gt;<br /> Use module from https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/71127 (unsafe) if you&#039;d like to avoid recompilation.<br /> &lt;/blockquote&gt;<br /> <br /> However, it seems that pull request was never merged and got closed since the author doesn&#039;t use VirtualBox anymore.<br /> <br /> Can the approach still be used without patching NixOS, or should we reconsidering the inclusion of this link on the page?</div>
