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

A .la file specifies linker flags to link with the library it describes. Its "dependency_libs" field lists the libraries that this library depends upon. This list often contains "-l" flags without corresponding "-L" flags. Many packages in Nixpkgs deal with this in one of these ways: - delete .la file [1] - clear dependency_libs [2] - add -L flags to dependency_libs [3] - propagate dependencies [4] Sometimes "dependency_libs" contain wrong "-L" flags pointing to the "dev" output with headers rather than to the main output with libraries. They have to be edited or deleted to reduce closure size [5]. Deleting .la files is often but not always safe [6]. Atomatically deleting as many of them as possible is complex [7]. Deleting .la files that describe shared rather than static libraries is probably safe; but clearing their "dependency_libs" field achieves the same effect with less potential for unintended consequences. This is the approach that may be enabled for all Nixpkgs. [1] |

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-18.03 for the latest
release and nixos-unstable for the latest successful build of master:
% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-18.03
For pull-requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master.
NixOS Linux distribution source code is located inside
nixos/ folder.
