-<refsection><title>Description</title>
-
-<para>The command <command>nix-pack-closure</command> packs the
-contents of the store paths <replaceable>paths</replaceable> and
-<emphasis>all their dependencies</emphasis> into a single file, which
-is written to standard output.  (That is, it
-<emphasis>serialises</emphasis> <replaceable>paths</replaceable>.)
-The output can then be unpacked into the Nix store of another machine
-using <command>nix-unpack-closure</command>.</para>
-
-<para>Together, <command>nix-pack-closure</command> and
-<command>nix-unpack-closure</command> provide a quick and easy way to
-deploy a package to a different machine.  However, as the output of
-<command>nix-pack-closure</command> tends to be rather large (since it
-contains all dependencies), it’s not very efficient.
-<command>nix-push</command> and <command>nix-pull</command> are more
-efficient, but are also a bit more cumbersome to use.</para>

-
-<para>To copy some instance of Subversion with all its dependencies to
-another machine:
-
-<screen>
-$ nix-pack-closure /nix/store/hj232g1r...-subversion-1.3.0 > svn.closure
-
-<lineannotation>Copy <!-- !!! <filename> -->svn.closure to the remote machine, then on the remote machine do:</lineannotation>
-$ nix-unpack-closure &lt; svn.closure</screen>
-
-</para>
-
-<para>Copy the program <command>azureus</command> with all its
-dependencies to the machine <literal>scratchy</literal>:
-
-<screen>
-$ nix-pack-closure $(which azureus) | ssh scratchy nix-unpack-closure</screen>
-    
-</para>
-
-<para>As a variation on the previous example, copy
-<command>azureus</command>, and also install it in the user’s profile
-on the target machine:
-
-<screen>
-$ nix-pack-closure $(which azureus) | ssh scratchy 'nix-env -i $(nix-unpack-closure)'</screen>
