For any one else wondering:
>The result of package build functions is cached in the file system, in a special directory called the store (see The Store). Each package is installed in a directory of its own, in the store—by default under /nix/store. The directory name contains a hash of all the inputs used to build that package; thus, changing an input yields a different directory name.
