Before, only the first output (and not even that when accessed through 'all' or its corresponding attribtue) had meta information and the relevant passthru attributes.
This doesn't change stdenv's hash and the tarball still builds, I'm pretty sure this is safe for master.
I'm not sure whether this was by intention, but so far postPatch hooks were
silently skipped whenever the patches list was empty. This change could possibly
change the build results of the following packages:
* gcc
* cmake (264)
* systemtap
* quemu-kvm
These packages all have in common that they have a postPatch hook and the
patches list can be empty when certain conditions are met.

Due to xz being override in the last stdenv and also in the previous, the
nixpkgs xz ended up being built by bootstrap-tools, and thus depending on it
through libgcc_so.so.1. That ends up making 'nix' with a runtime
dependency on bootstrap-tools.
If set to false, mkDerivation will throw an exception if a package has
an unfree license. ‘release-lib.nix’ uses this to enforce that we
don't build unfree packages as part of the Nixpkgs channel. Since
this is set through Nixpkgs' ‘config’ argument, it's more finegrained
than $HYDRA_DISALLOW_UNFREE.
Although patching it made some programs run (configure tests), some others
crashed with segfault. So I don't think there is any win patching it. The
proper way to solve the bootstrap in the raspberry pi is, as far as I've been
testing, use glibc 2.17 libs in bootstrap-tools with the same ld.so name as the
bootstrapped glibc.
This is a problem inherent in our way to bootstrap, that first replaces
the glibc of a given gcc+glibc (bootstrap-tools) with gcc-wrapper tricks, and
then builds a new gcc. A nicer way would be to build a gcc without glibc,
then the glibc, then the final gcc, as we do with cross-tools.
Some comments about this problem in
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/234#issuecomment-11764352
This solves the problem of the change of name in ld.so between
glibc 2.13 and 2.17 (at least for armhf). Some comments about it in
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/234#issuecomment-11764352
As there says, without this, gmp (after glibc built) tests crashed
- segfault.
Now that we have a way to alter /bin/sh in chroots on non-NixOS Linux
platforms, it may be useful to have access to stdenv.shell package and to
static bash contained in bootstrap tools. So make them accessible via stdenv
attribute set.
libstdc++ and libmudflapth link to the dynamic loader; if the
bootstrap uses another dynamic loader name, and the rpath of these
libs isn't changed, they will fail to load.
Conflicts:
pkgs/development/compilers/gcc/4.6/default.nix
pkgs/development/compilers/gcc/4.7/default.nix
The 4.7 had some weird parameters added in crossAttrs; I've removed
them, but I don't understand where they come from.
This is for consistency with terminology in stdenv (and the terms
"hostDrv" and "buildDrv" are not very intuitive, even if they're
consistent with GNU terminology).
This allows various applications. It allows users to set global
optimisation flags, e.g.
stdenv.userHook = ''NIX_CFLAGS_COMPILE+=" -funroll-loops"'';
But the impetus is as an alternative to issue #229, allowing impure
stdenv setup for people who want to use distcc:
stdenv.userHook = "source /my/impure/setup-script.sh";
This is probably a bad idea, but at least now it's a bad idea in
people's configuration and not in Nixpkgs. :-)
This adapter causes the resulting binaries to have debug info and no
optimisations. Example use (in all-packages.nix):
foo = callPackage ./foo.nix {
stdenv = keepDebugInfo stdenv;
};
If the environment variable HYDRA_DISALLOW_UNFREE is set to "1", then
evaluation of a package with license "unfree" will throw an error.
Thus such packages or any packages that depend on them will fail to
evaluate.
what the new nix thinks the fuloong is.
Anyone having the old nix should use a nixpkgs previous to this change to build
the new nix. And then, with the new nix, he can use any newer nixpkgs revision.

bash's pattern replacement feature. "replace-literal" is an
uncommon command so it was a headache during the bootstrap.

some redundant builds (e.g., GMP was built three times).
* Updated GMP to 5.0.2.
* Updated PPL to 0.11.2.
* Remove ad hoc flags to build GCC's dependencies statically.
Instead, use the ‘makeStaticLibraries’ stdenv adapter.
* Build GMP with C++ support by default.

These markers follow the format of those of `nix-store --print-build-trace',
which allows extraction of, say, phase durations in a similar way.

does not override NIX_CFLAGS_COMPILE anymore in the mkDerivation parameter
attributes. This way, apacheHttpd can be built properly with coverage
information.
An indication of this problem came from the nixos tests.subversion failure.

bootstrap-tools, because zlib was there and binutils were not having an
explicit buildInput for zlib. Due to that, we ended up with stdenv
(gcc-wrapper) depending on bootstrap-tools as runtime dependency.

newest I uploaded yesterday. These have gcc 4.5.1, that fulfills the glibc
2.12.1 requirement of having a compiler equal or greater to gcc 4.4 to build
proper x86 32-bit code (http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=12123)

This time I even chose better names for the attributes, so they match better
the comments.

I had done an attempt recently, unsuccesful, which ended in a recent revert.
This change works.
I even updated the comments in the file.

This should allow keeping the i686-linux boostrap-tools.
I updated some days ago the x86_64-linux bootstrap-tools, but that update is
not needed anymore. We can revert that boostrap-tools update if anyone wants.
Pro:
- new gcc building gcc and glibc.
Contra:
- maybe some old systems (patched red had kernels come to mind) break with that update?

If a build expressions has set "enableParallelBuilding = true", then the
generic builder may utilize more than one CPU core to build that particular
expression. This feature works out of the box for GNU Make. Expressions that
use other build drivers like Boost.Jam or SCons have to specify appropriate
flags such as "-j${NIX_BUILD_CORES}" themselves.

Instead, use the generic package override mechanism to use packages
from earlier bootstrap phases.
* Don't rely on the existence of attributes such as
`stdenv.coreutils'.
