[Nix-dev] Source URL breakage - please can we improve the determinism

[Brad Ediger]

We have also run into this issue with spotify and similar unfree /
non-redistributable packages. The consensus last time we had upstream URLs
disappear was that it is not permissible to cache and redistribute even the
original source.

There may be a partial solution for this problem, but it will not solve the
issue for nonfree packages.
