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

vmTools.commonDebPackages: Add "mawk".
While debugging an issue with running NixOps tests, I found out that the
output from debClosureGenerator is not deterministic.

The reason behind this is the way how Provides and Replaces fields are
handled. I haven't yet found out what's the exact issue, but so far
packages "Provides" are more or less picked at random.

So, running the NixOps Hetzner tests we get either mawk, original-awk or
gawk altering on every invocation.

While for the test it isn't poisionous whether wi have mawk or gawk,
having original-awk certainly is, because live-build only works with
mawk or gawk.

The best solution would obviously be to make debClosureGenerator
deterministic, but in the case of "Provides: awk", we can safely pick
mawk by default, because the latter has a "Priority: required" in its
package description.

This also has the advantage that we can safely cherry-pick this to
release-15.09 because it's very unlikely that we'll break the
debClosureGenerator by adding a dependency to commonDebPackages.

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.
