fca769846a Adding a new special attribute for mkDerivation: crossAttrs. It sits next to
"meta" and "passthru", and these attributes will be appended to the usual
mkDerivation attributes only if the package is cross built.
This allows putting some of the cross-building logic in the mkDerivation
nix parameters, and not only in the final builder script, as it was until now.

9183f21f7e Merging from trunk.
I fixed conflicts regarding the renaming 'kernel' -> 'linux' in all-packages.
Also a small conflict in all-packages about making openssl overridable.
And I some linux 2.6.31-zen kernel files also marked in conflict.

a3403e6828 Finishing the update from trunk, having resolved the eclipse related directory
renaming.
I think directory renaming breaks the usual merges... because it leaves the
'to be removed' directory in the working directory still. A manual 'rm' of the
'to be removed' directory fixed the commit.

eadcd4462d Making, in cross-builds, every buildInput a propagatedBuildInput. We need
this because 'ld' wants to know the path of every library involved in a dynamic
linking. I imagine that ld does not need that in native builds because it can
call the loader for it to resolve the library rpaths, but this is not the case
for cross-building.

45886e474d On native builds:
- Disabling guile test, because one fails. I commented on that in the source.
On cross builds:
- Adding stripping
- Updating the glibc-2.11 expression to match the parameters of glibc-2.9,
  which I was updating more.
- Renaming from selfNativeBuildInput to selfBuildNativeInput, so this matches
  better the pattern buildNativeInputs.

585ba8c27f Big fixes in the cross build:
- Before this changes, cflags and ldflags for the native and the cross compiler
  got mixed. Not all the gcc-wrapper/gcc-cross-wrapper variables are
  independant now, but enough, I think.
- Fixed the generic stdenv expression, which did a big mess on buildInputs and
  buildNativeInputs. Now it distinguishes when there is a stdenvCross or not.
  Maybe we should have a single stdenv and forget about the stdenvCross
  adapter - this could end in a stdenv a bit complex, but simpler than the
  generic stdenv + adapter.
- Added basic support in pkgconfig for cross-builds: a single PKG_CONFIG_PATH
  now works for both the cross and the native compilers, but I think this
  should work well for most cases I can think of.
- I tried to fix the guile expression to cross-biuld; guile is built, but not
  its manual, so the derivation still fails. Guile requires patching to
  cross-build, as far as I understnad.
- Made the glibcCross build to be done through the usage of a
  gcc-cross-wrapper over the gcc-cross-stage-static, instead of using it
  directly.
- Trying to make physfs (a neverball dependency) cross build.
- Updated the gcc expression to support building a cross compiler without getting
  derivation variables mixed with those of the stdenvCross.

b29073af25 * Add an adapter which abort an install if the installed package depends
on a derivation with a meta.license attribute which does not satisfy the
  license predicate.

With this adapter you can abort any install which depends on software
which are not free by default.  You can try it with MPlayer, because
MPlayer depends of win32codecs flagged as "unfree".

28d9e73d34 Adding a new mkDerivation flag for the cross stdenv, selfNativeBuildInput =
true/false, which tells whether the derivation needs itself as
buildNativeInput.
For example, in order to build cross ncurses, we need the a native build
ncurses.
(As libtool does not work in stdenv, I have not tested this change, to check
whether finally ncurses cross-build)

6f3630e128 Attention, people who care on the builders for native builds. In the stdenv
derivation, the "buildInputs" in every stdenv mkDerivation don't map now
directly to the environment
variable "buildInputs" in the builder, but "buildNativeInputs". So, the inputs
build by the native compiler.
When cross compiling, they will map to the environment variable "buildInputs"
(yes, now the same name), which means does to be built with the cross compiler.

I think I improved the naming of variables a bit. There was a big mess,
specially in the stdenv adapter for cross building, and also in the default
builder script.

I also tried to add proper manager of propagatedInputBuilds, these being
propagated considering the host or build origin of that input build (so, at the
end, being those propagatedInputBuilds being propagated properly to the native
or the cross compiler.

7ade207f6b - Removed all *NoCross expressions I dupilcated in nixpkgs, while maintaining
the cross compilation functionality.
- I renamed some expected stdenv.mkDerivation parameter attributes so we can
  keep this branch properly updated from trunk. We agreed with Nicolas Pierron
  doing a massive renaming, so all current buildInputs become hostInputs (input
  as build for the host machine, in autotools terminology) , and
  then buildInputs would mean "input as for the build machine".
  By now, the specific "input as for the build machine" is specified through
  buildNativeInputs. We should fix this in the merge to trunk.
- I made the generic stdenv understand the buildNativeInputs, otherwise if
  we start changing nixpkgs expressions so they distinguish the current
  buildInputs into buildInputs and buildNativeInputs, we could break even more
  nixpkgs for other platforms.
- I changed the default result of mkDerivation so it becomes the derivation for
  to be run in the build machine. This allows, without any special rewriting,
  "fetchurl" derivations to be always results for the build machine to use
  them.
- The change above implies that, for anyone wanting to cross-compile, has to
  build the hostDrv of the wanted derivation. For example, after this commit,
  the usual test of "nix-build -A bison.hostDrv arm.nix" works. I described
  the contents of this arm.nix in r18398.

8c638e5e68 Fixing what I broke in the last commit in setup.sh.
I made the stdenvCross adapter simpler, according to Nicolas Pierron comments,
and I commented it a bit.

There are still jobs to do. At least:
- Plan for the general renaming from buildInputs to hostInputs
  - We should not break merges from trunk.
- Make the generic stdenv understand about host/buildInputs, at least for
  native builds, because it is used in the always-native building of
  stdenvLinux. This should allow us to remove all duplications of "*NoCross" in
  nixpkgs.

e7c8e8da4f I made the whole nixpkgs dependencies available to the cross compiler, no
needing to keep a new tree of expressions apart for the expressions to get
cross-compiled.

I changed the whole way of using cross compilation with nixpkgs, which before
was done through a simple adapter.

Now the adapter became complex, and I've tried to avoid the most obvious
recursivities. For example, the fetchurl expression should
never be cross-compiled, as the gmp, mpfr, and some others, like
some ncurses, perl, ... I made overrided copies of those necessary as
perlNoCross, ncursesNoCross, as stdenvNoCross, keeping in mind that
the stdenv (capable of cross compilation) is built upon stdenvNoCross using
an adapter.

So, to cross compile, instead of building using "nixpkgs/default.nix",
you should build with your
own "myarchiteture.nix", which should have contents like these, for example:

import /etc/nixos/nixpkgs/default.nix
{
    crossSystem = {
        config = "armv5tel-unknown-linux-gnueabi";
        bigEndian = false;
        arch = "arm";
        float = "soft";
    };
}
