fixLibtool(): patch ./configure, add `file` to common-path.nix libtool's libtool.m4 script assumes that `file` is available, and can be found at `/usr/bin/file` (this path is hardwired). Furthermore, the script with this assumption is vendored into the ./configure scripts of an enormous number of packages. Without this commit, you will frequently see errors like this during the configurePhase with the sandbox enabled: ./configure: line 9595: /usr/bin/file: command not found Due mostly to luck, this error does not affect native compiles on nixpkgs' two most popular platforms, x86_64-linux and aarch64-linux. However it will cause incorrect linker flag detection and a failure to generate shared libraries for sandboxed cross-builds to a x86_64-linux host as well as any sandboxed build (cross or native) for the following hosts: x86_64-freebsd, *-hpux, *-irix, mips64*-linux, powerpc*-linux, s390x-linux, s390x-tpf, sparc-linux, and *-solaris. This commit fixes the problem by adding an extra line to fixLibtool() in pkgs/stdenv/generic/setup.sh. This extra line will scan the unpacked source code for executable files named "configure" which contain the following text: 'GNU Libtool is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify' This text is taken to be an indicator of a vendored libtool.m4. When it is found, the configure script containing it is subjected to `sed -i s_/usr/bin/file_file_` which replaces all occurrences of `/usr/bin/file` with `file`. Additionally, the `file` package is now considered to be part of `stdenv`. It has been added to `common-path.nix` so that the `file` binary will be found in the `$PATH` of every build, except for the bootstrap-tools and the first few stages of stdenv boostrapping. Verified no regressions under: nix-build --arg pkgs 'import ./. {}' ./lib/tests/release.nix This commit allows the following commands to complete, which should enable Hydra to produce bootstrap-files for mips64el: nix-build \ --option sandbox true \ --option sandbox-fallback false \ pkgs/top-level/release-cross.nix \ -A bootstrapTools.mips64el-linux-gnuabi64.build nix-build \ --option sandbox true \ --option sandbox-fallback false \ . \ -A pkgsCross.mips64el-linux-gnuabi64.nix_2_4

# The `file` command is added here because an enormous number of
# packages have a vendored dependency upon `file` in their
# `./configure` script, due to libtool<=2.4.6, or due to
# libtool>=2.4.7 in which the package author decided to set FILECMD
# when running libtoolize. In fact, file-5.4.6 *depends on itself*
# and tries to invoke `file` from its own ./configure script.
