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`.

Nicolas B. Pierron f5dfe78a1e Add overlays mechanism to Nixpkgs. 
This patch add a new argument to Nixpkgs default expression named "overlays".

By default, the value of the argument is either taken from the environment variable `NIXPKGS_OVERLAYS`,
or from the directory `~/.nixpkgs/overlays/`.  If the environment variable does not name a valid directory
then this mechanism would fallback on the home directory.  If the home directory does not exists it will
fallback on an empty list of overlays.

The overlays directory should contain the list of extra Nixpkgs stages which would be used to extend the
content of Nixpkgs, with additional set of packages.  The overlays, i-e directory, files, symbolic links
are used in alphabetical order.

The simplest overlay which extends Nixpkgs with nothing looks like:

```nix
self: super: {
}
```

More refined overlays can use `super` as the basis for building new packages, and `self` as a way to query
the final result of the fix-point.

An example of overlay which extends Nixpkgs with a small set of packages can be found at:
  https://github.com/nbp/nixpkgs-mozilla/blob/nixpkgs-overlay/moz-overlay.nix

To use this file, checkout the repository and add a symbolic link to
the `moz-overlay.nix` file in `~/.nixpkgs/overlays` directory.

Richard Zetterberg 2206d7afe2 texlive manual: adds import of nixpkgs in nix-repl 
I wanted to list the different texlive collections using the nix-repl, as per the [manual](https://nixos.org/nixpkgs/manual/#idm140737316065984). 

It didn't work, since the nixpkgs were not loaded. Doing `:l <nixpkgs>` first resolved the problem.

This change adds the nixpkgs loading step to the manual so that the next inexperienced person don't have to figure out why it didn't work.

I tested this on NixOS unstable (16.09pre90254.6b20d5b) with nix-repl 1.11.3.

Frederik Rietdijk 107c035bf0 Python: remove pythonSmall 
In #19309 a separate output for tkinter was added.

Several dependencies of Python depend indirectly on Python. We have the
following two paths:
```
‘python-2.7.12’ - ‘tk-8.6.6’ - ‘libXft-2.3.2’ - ‘libXrender-0.9.10’ -
‘libX11-1.6.4’ - ‘libxcb-1.12’ - ‘libxslt-1.1.29’- ‘libxml2-2.9.4’ -
‘python-2.7.12’

‘python-2.7.12’ - ‘tk-8.6.6’ - ‘libXft-2.3.2’ - ‘fontconfig-2.12.1’ -
‘dejavu-fonts-2.37’ - ‘fontforge-20160404’ - ‘python-2.7.12’
```
Because only `tkinter` needs this, I added
```
pythonSmall = python.override {x11Support = false;};
```
to break the infinite recursion. We also still have the output
`tkinter`.

However, we might as well build without x11Support by default. Then we build with x11Support as well so we get the tkinter module and put that in a separate package.

They now go to devman, devdoc, or $outputMan, in that order. This is
to prevent cases such as the man-pages package quietly losing its
section 3 pages.

Tuomas Tynkkynen e2c6740c37 Merge commit 'adaee73' from staging into master 
This one was already merged into release-16.09, so let's not have the
stable branch is ahead of master and confuse things. In addition to
that, currently we have an odd situation that master has less things
actually finished building than in staging.

Domen Kožar da421bc75f Fix #4210: Remove builderDefs 
This was one of the ways to build packages, we are trying
hard to minimize different ways so it's easier for newcomers
to learn only one way.

This also:

- removes texLive (old), fixes #14807
- removed upstream-updater, if that code is still used it should be in
  separate repo
- changes a few packages like gitit/mit-scheme to use new texlive

Kamil Chmielewski da3ddd48e4 buildGoPackage: remove Go deps file libs.json 
After #16017 there were a lot
of comments saying that `nix` would be better than `JSON`
for Go packages dependency sets.
As said in https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/16017#issuecomment-229624046

    > Because of the content-addressable store, if two programs have the
    > same dependency it will already result in the same derivation in
    > the
    > store. Git also has compression in the pack files so it won't make
    > much difference to duplicate the dependencies on disk. And finally
    > most users will just use the binary builds so it won't make any
    > differences to them.

This PR removes `libs.json` file and puts all package dependencies in
theirs `deps.json`.

 2016-06-25 14:25:58 +01:00
zimbatm e71a5cb878 stdenv: introduce baseHash() to replace stripHash() 
stripHash uses a global variable to communicate it's computation
results, but it's not necessary. You can just pipe to stdout in a
subshell. A function mostly behaves like just another command.

baseHash() also introduces a suffix-stripping capability since it's
something the users of the function tend to use.

The wrong usage of unfree-redistributable fixed in

documention, specifically the section in the nixpkgs manual describing
generic licenses it is written to use attributes from `stdenv.lib.licenses`
but in the list the strings form was documented without quotation marks.

This confuses people because the package builds fine locally but failes
the tests on travis-ci.

Frederik Rietdijk 92179785b6 DOC: Overview of Nixpkgs/channels/Hydra/tests (close #11263) 
What I missed when I began using Nix and NixOS was a clear overview of
how packages, channels, Hydra, the master branch and updates to channels
relate to each other.

I've noticed I am not the only one, given the amount of times these
questions pop up.

For now I propose to include this in the Nixpkgs manual, since this
seems to be the best fit. However, I think it would be good to include
this in either a new manual, i.e., a user manual, or an 'official'
tutorial.

Vladimír Čunát b8c489e781 Merge branch 'staging' 
It seemed very fine on Hydra before it was cancelled due to glibc rebuild,
in particular the nixpkgs unstable job succeeded except for
bootstrap-tarball tests which should be fine after ee994dfae6.

Therefore, let's avoid another mass rebuild by merging now when we don't

Eric Merritt 8021b5241c rebar3: refactor to make hermetic 
This adds changes to the rebar3 expression that patch rebar3 to force it
to be hermetic. Now, by default, rebar3 literally can't download
anything. A 'rebar3-open' expression was added for those folks whe want
the normal rebar3.

and it's likely there will be more of similar cases in future.

To be certain, I checked diff of the generated HTMLs.

Eelco Dolstra ec5b66eb4a Enable separate debug info 
You can now pass

  separateDebugInfo = true;

to mkDerivation. This causes debug info to be separated from ELF
binaries and stored in the "debug" output. The advantage is that it
enables installing lean binaries, while still having the ability to
make sense of core dumps, etc.

- Fixed cases where both xorg and xlibs were used.
Hopefully everything still works as before.

Eelco Dolstra 2cd7c1f198 Unify NixOS and Nixpkgs channel structure 
This is primarily to ensure that

  -I nixpkgs=https://nixos.org/channels/nixos-unstable/nixexprs.tar.xz

and

  -I nixpkgs=https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs-channels/archive/nixos-unstable.tar.gz

and

  -I nixpkgs=https://nixos.org/channels/nixpkgs-unstable/nixexprs.tar.xz

behave consistently.

It also allows installing packages via "nix-env -iA nixos.<pkg>"
rather than "nixos.pkgs.<pkg>". It would be even better to allow
"nixpkgs.<pkg>", but that requires a change to nix-channel.

Fixes #7659.
