Nix Packages collection & NixOS
96f0d3b908
Somewhat amusingly given its name, "clang.patch" applies to both 5 and 6 but is the cause of ncurses6 breakage on 6 but is required on 5... gcc is happy in all four configurations: 5 5p 6 6p gcc ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ clang ✗ ✓ ✓ ✗ Which is why this commit enables the patch for 5 but not 6; this matches behavior in Gentoo, for example. For further simplification, we also use gcc-5 patch regardless. |

Nixpkgs is a collection of packages for the Nix package manager. It is periodically built and tested by the Hydra build daemon as so-called channels. To get channel information via git, add nixpkgs-channels as a remote:
% git remote add channels git://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs-channels.git
For stability and maximum binary package support, it is recommended to maintain
custom changes on top of one of the channels, e.g. nixos-17.09
for the latest
release and nixos-unstable
for the latest successful build of master:
% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-17.09
For pull-requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master
.
NixOS Linux distribution source code is located inside
nixos/
folder.
