Hi folks.

What are the rules about how and when 'share/' folder of (multi-output)
derivation will be merged into 'share/' folder of profile?

E.g. I can't see content of
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/4a0be7837cadf9b6e9cae430d80f65a2af60dcc6/pkgs/tools/misc/fzf/default.nix#L33
anywhere in my profile 'share/' even after installing every output

Only when I move 'share/' to '$bin' output, it starts appearing in profile
'share/' folder.

Best,
Alexey
