I checked out this repo and symlinked default.nix to ~/.config/nixpkgs/overlays/mozilla.nix, but when I run nix-env -f '<nixpkgs>' -qaP | grep firefox it says that it's current firefox-beta-bin version is 55.0b2 and not 57. It seems like it pulls the version from https://product-details.mozilla.org/1.0/firefox_versions.json but when I curl that it shows the correct version for LATEST_FIREFOX_DEVEL_VERSION. Is there something else I have to do or is this overlay out of date somehow?

I guess either the overlay needs to be updated, or the readme needs to include more information, especially since there doesn't seem to be much readily available documentation on overlays in nix in the first place.

The latest builds are hidden under the "latest" prefix. I'm not sure they will appear to the package listing because we don't recurseIntoAttrs.

nix-env -f '<nixpkgs>' -iA latest.firefox-nightly-bin should do the trick

This use case is alreday better satisfied by the
latest.firefox-nightly-bin attribute. The bare firefox-nightly-bin
attribute is just confusing.

Fixes mozilla#68.
