# Here is a template to bring a specific package from a given nixpkgs commit:
# PACKAGE_NAME = (builtins.getFlake "github:nixos/nixpkgs/NIXPKGS_COMMIT_SHA1").legacyPackages.${system}.PACKAGE_NAME;
# Substitute `PACKAGE_NAME` and `NIXPKGS_COMMIT_SHA1` accordingly.
# If a package already exists it is overlaid (previous one gets inaccessible).
