This is the master branch of nixpkgs, initially pulled from commit 8debf2f9a63d54ae4f28994290437ba54c681c7b The intent of this repo is to be merged onto nixpkgs master. This will also be of help for https://git.suyu.dev/BoomMicrophone/suyu-nix-test which I will need in order for development (it will also be helpful to know what to do for setting up the environment for the master server. Currently I am focusing on this so I can actually see what is still missing) This repo will be removed once the PR to the nixpkgs github goes through

Nicolas B. Pierron 5f4cb91a1c Move helperfunctions and stdenvAdapters under pkgsFun.
The `helperFunctions` and `stdenvAdapters` both use the `pkgs` attribute as
input, either to inherit some properties, either to use it as argument.

The `pkgs` binding used in both expressions of the `helperFunctions` and
`stdenvAdapters` is no longer the result of the `applyGlobalOverrides`
function, but the argument of the `pkgsFun` function.

The `pkgsFun` functions is called twice under `applyGlobalOverrides`, and in
both cases, the first argument of `pkgsFun` correspond to the result of
`applyGlobalOverrides`.

Thus, this modification will change the bindings, but the evaluation of
`<nixpkgs>`.

A third call the `pkgsFun` exists under `overridePackages` in the set of all
packages. Previously, the `helperFunctions` and `stdenvAdapaters` would use
the functions defined as part of the default `<nixpkgs>` set.  With this
modification, the `helperFunctions` and the `stdenvAdapters` are now using
the fix-point of the newly evaluated package set.

This implies that this modification allow the user to use
`overridePackages`, which is already not recommended for performance
reasons, to override the inputs of the `helperFucntions` and
`stdenvAdapaters` too, where this was not possible before.

Build Status Issue Stats Issue Stats

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-15.09 for the latest release and nixos-unstable for the latest successful build of master:

% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-15.09

For pull-requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master.

NixOS linux distribution source code is located inside nixos/ folder.
