Frederik Rietdijk ef4442e827 Python: replace requests2 with requests tree-wide
See f63eb58573

The `requests2` attribute now throws an error informing that `requests`
should be used instead.

John Ericson 863d79b364 top-level: Introduce targetPackages and a "double link fold"
Each bootstrapping stage ought to just depend on the previous stage, but
poorly-written compilers break this elegence. This provides an easy-enough
way to depend on the next stage: targetPackages. PLEASE DO NOT USE IT
UNLESS YOU MUST!

I'm hoping someday in a pleasant future I can revert this commit :)

nixpkgs: allow packages to be marked insecure
If a package's meta has `knownVulnerabilities`, like so:

    stdenv.mkDerivation {
      name = "foobar-1.2.3";

      ...

      meta.knownVulnerabilities = [
        "CVE-0000-00000: remote code execution"
        "CVE-0000-00001: local privilege escalation"
      ];
    }

and a user attempts to install the package, they will be greeted with
a warning indicating that maybe they don't want to install it:

    error: Package ‘foobar-1.2.3’ in ‘...default.nix:20’ is marked as insecure, refusing to evaluate.

    Known issues:

     - CVE-0000-00000: remote code execution
     - CVE-0000-00001: local privilege escalation

    You can install it anyway by whitelisting this package, using the
    following methods:

    a) for `nixos-rebuild` you can add ‘foobar-1.2.3’ to
       `nixpkgs.config.permittedInsecurePackages` in the configuration.nix,
       like so:

         {
           nixpkgs.config.permittedInsecurePackages = [
             "foobar-1.2.3"
           ];
         }

    b) For `nix-env`, `nix-build`, `nix-shell` or any other Nix command you can add
    ‘foobar-1.2.3’ to `permittedInsecurePackages` in
    ~/.config/nixpkgs/config.nix, like so:

         {
           permittedInsecurePackages = [
             "foobar-1.2.3"
           ];
         }

Adding either of these configurations will permit this specific
version to be installed. A third option also exists:

  NIXPKGS_ALLOW_INSECURE=1 nix-build ...

though I specifically avoided having a global file-based toggle to
disable this check. This way, users don't disable it once in order to
get a single package, and then don't realize future packages are
insecure.

cross stdenv: let build package's build deps resolve to native packages
2017-02-05 17:41:31 -05:00
John Ericson 5eaea6cee0 cross stdenv: let build package's build deps resolve to native packages
This fixes the "sliding window" principle:
  0. Run packages:       build = native;  host = foreign; target = foreign;
  1. Build packages:     build = native;  host = native;  target = foreign;
  2. Vanilla packages:   build = native;  host = native;  target = native;
  3. Vanilla packages:   build = native;  host = native;  target = native;
  n+3. ...

Each stage's build dependencies are resolved against the previous stage,
and the "foreigns" are shifted accordingly. Vanilla packages alone are
built against themsevles, since there are no more "foreign"s to shift away.

Before, build packages' build dependencies were resolved against
themselves:
  0. Run packages:       build = native;  host = foreign; target = foreign;
  1. Build packages:     build = native;  host = native;  target = foreign;
  2. Build packages:     build = native;  host = native;  target = foreign;
  n+2. ...

This is wrong because that principle is violated by the target
platform staying foreign.

This will change the hashes of many build packages and run packages, but
that is OK. This is an unavoidable cost of fixing cross compiling.

The cross compilation docs have been updated to reflect this fix.

Bas van Dijk dfcc9e2994 ghc: support building with integer-simple and provide package sets for it
If the flag enableIntegerSimple is true GHC will be build with the GPL-free but
slower integer-simple library instead of the faster but GPLed integer-gmp
library.

The attribute `pkgs.haskell.compiler.integer-simple."${ghcVersion}"` provides a
GHC compiler build with `integer-simple`.

Similarly, the attribute `pkgs.haskell.packages.integer-simple."${ghcVersion}"`
provides a package set supporting `integer-simple`.
