Description

Could you please configure the copy of Nixpkgs used for the evaluation and build checks to include haskellPackages and rPackages? https://github.com/NixOS/nixos-homepage/pull/201 has a simple override that can be applied to achieve this by adding the (normally absent) recurseIntoAttrs modifier to those attribute sets.
