       -q, --quiet
              do not show the build log

       --log-file
              return the log file names for the given derivations

       -L, --load-path=DIR
              prepend DIR to the package module search path

       -K, --keep-failed
              keep build tree of failed builds

              build N times in a row to detect non-determinism

       -c, --cores=N
              allow the use of up to N CPU cores for the build

       -M, --max-jobs=N
              allow at most N build jobs
