 == Nix store on an unusual filesystem ==
 === Case insensitive filesystem on Linux ===
-Most Linux filesystems are case sensitive. If your nix store is on a case sensitive filesystem like CIFS on Linux, derivation outputs cannot contain two files differing only in case in the same directory. Nix can work around this by adding <code>use-case-hack = true</code> to your nix configuration (<code>/etc/nix/nix.conf</code> for a multi-user-install or <code>~/.config/nix/nix.conf</code> otherwise). Unfortunately, this will change the hash of some derivations and thus make the binary cache useless.
