Browse source 
E.g.

  $ nix run nixpkgs#hello
  error: --- Error ---------- nix
  flake 'flake:nixpkgs' does not provide attribute 'apps.x86_64-linux.hello' or 'hello'

instead of

  $ nix run nixpkgs#hello
  error: --- Error ---------- nix
  flake 'flake:nixpkgs' does not provide attribute 'hello'
