5941f66f0e * The stdenv setup script now defines a generic builder that allows
builders for typical Autoconf-style to be much shorten, e.g.,

    . $stdenv/setup
    genericBuild

  The generic builder does lots of stuff automatically:

  - Unpacks source archives specified by $src or $srcs (it knows about
    gzip, bzip2, tar, zip, and unpacked source trees).
  - Determines the source tree.
  - Applies patches specified by $patches.
  - Fixes libtool not to search for libraries in /lib etc.
  - Runs `configure'.
  - Runs `make'.
  - Runs `make install'.
  - Strips debug information from static libraries.
  - Writes nested log information (in the format accepted by
    `log2xml').

  There are also lots of hooks and variables to customise the generic
  builder.  See `stdenv/generic/docs.txt'.

* Adapted the base packages (i.e., the ones used by stdenv) to use the
  generic builder.

* We now use `curl' instead of `wget' to download files in `fetchurl'.

* Neither `curl' nor `wget' are part of stdenv.  We shouldn't
  encourage people to download stuff in builders (impure!).

* Updated some packages.

* `buildinputs' is now `buildInputs' (but the old name also works).

* `findInputs' in the setup script now prevents inputs from being
  processed multiple times (which could happen, e.g., if an input was
  a propagated input of several other inputs; this caused the size
  variables like $PATH to blow up exponentially in the worst case).

* Patched GNU Make to write nested log information in the format
  accepted by `log2xml'.  Also, prior to writing the build command,
  Make now writes a line `building X' to indicate what is being
  built.  This is unfortunately often obscured by the gigantic tool
  invocations in many Makefiles.  The actual build commands are marked
  `unimportant' so that they don't clutter pages generated by
  `log2html'.

0fd59fd7a4 * Re-enabled purity checking: it should work now. First we only
checked whether absolute paths passed to gcc/ld refer to the store,
  which is wrong: they can also refer to the build tree
  (/tmp/nix-...).

* Less static composition in the construction of stdenv-nix-linux:
  gcc-wrapper and generic are now passed in as arguments, rather then
  referenced by relative path.  This makes it easier to hack on a
  specific stage of the bootstrap process (before, a change to, e.g.,
  generic/setup.sh would cause all bootstrap stages to be redone).

ce50734cf0 * Started reorganising stdenv:
- gcc/ld-wrappers have been factored out into a separate
    derivation.  This allows a working gcc to be installed in the user
    environment.  (Previously the Nix gcc didn't work because it
    needed a whole bunch of flags to point to glibc.)
    
  - Better modularity: packages can specify hooks into the setup
    scripts.  For instance, setup no longer knows about the
    PKG_CONFIG_PATH variable; pkgconfig can set it up instead.

  - gcc not longer depends on binutils.  This simplifies the bootstrap
    process.

b7ad383924 * Bah. All this time gcc was linking programs against
/usr/lib/crt1.o, while it should be using $glibc/lib/crt1.o.  This
  quick hack (prepending $glibc/lib to the GCC search path using "-B")
  fixes the problem, but a better solution to prevent this sort of
  thing is to remove these static paths from gcc.

  Note: this problem was found using the pure UML Nix environment
  (where we don't have /usr/lib).

16c0047575 * Use a 2-stage bootstrap for creating the standard build environment
(stdenv) on Linux.  The previous 1-stage bootstrap was insufficient,
  because the tools in stdenv where built by native tools.  For
  instance, the Nix bash had a reference to /lib/libncurses.  This
  doesn't happen with a 2-stage bootstrap, since the bash built in
  stage 2 will be built with the gcc built in stage 1, which doesn't
  search in the "standard" locations.

  Motto: "Disparaging the boot is a bootable offense."

e019265ec9 * Scripts to set up and run the absolute minimal pure Nix
environment; that is, an operating system environment in which there
  is (essentially) only a store.

  The script `make-disk.sh' creates an ext2 disk image, creates a Nix
  store in it, and copies the closure of the bash package (from
  nixpkgs) to it.  The script `run.sh' then starts bash in a UML
  virtual machine.

  The contents of the image after creation look like this:

  $ ls -l
  drwxr-xr-x    2 root     root         1024 2004-02-14 19:13 dev
  lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           61 2004-02-14 23:34 init -> /nix/store/e40873ece7a010752ad72b4262b23d28-bash-2.05b/bin/sh
  drwx------    2 root     root        12288 2004-02-14 19:13 lost+found
  drwxr-xr-x    4 root     root         1024 2004-02-14 19:13 nix
  drwxr-xr-x    2 root     root         1024 2004-02-14 19:13 proc
  drwxrwxrwt    2 root     root         1024 2004-02-14 19:13 tmp

  The next step is to add all the other stuff that goes into a working
  system (coreutils, etc.).  BTW, if you don't have `ls' you can still
  list directories by doing `echo *' :-)

  Nix itself should also be Nixified so that it can be put into the
  store.
