History

Jonathan Ringer 9bb3fccb5b treewide: pkgs.pkgconfig -> pkgs.pkg-config, move pkgconfig to alias.nix continuation of #109595 pkgconfig was aliased in 2018, however, it remained in all-packages.nix due to its wide usage. This cleans up the remaining references to pkgs.pkgsconfig and moves the entry to aliases.nix. python3Packages.pkgconfig remained unchanged because it's the canonical name of the upstream package on pypi.		2021-01-19 01:16:25 -08:00

New build system for GHCJS 8.2

ghcjs-8.2 reworked the build system, and now comes with its own small package set of dependencies. This involves autogenerating several sources and cabal files, based on a GHC checkout. callCabal2nix is off limits, since we don't like "import from derivation" in nixpkgs. So there is a derivation that builds the nix expression that should be checked in whenever GHCJS is updated.
