nixpkgs manual: advise against overriding whole phases
I've seen that mistake at least a few times already, e.g.
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/26209#issuecomment-305925562
It might perhaps seem counter-intuitive if one doesn't know nixpkgs well.

manual: add "declarative package management" section
This section gives some details on how to setup an "environment"
without having to go through NixOS (although it could be used there
too). I’ve tried to make it straightforward and have a kind of
"tutorial" feel. Not sure if that’s appropriate for the manual, so any
recommended changes would be helpful.

manual: add "Emacs" section to manual
This gives some basics on configuring Emacs within Nix. The
configuration is fairly long just to give a good idea of what’s going
on. I can trim out some of it if it’s not necessary. Note that there
is already a section for Emacs in the NixOS manual. However, this is
aimed at avoiding using modules altogether to make things easier for
non-NixOS users. This configuration should work on NixOS anyway,
however.

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.

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.

stdenv/stripHash: print to stdout, not to variable
`stripHash` documentation states that it prints out the stripped name to
the stdout, but the function stored the value in `strippedName`
instead.

Basically all usages did something like
`$(stripHash $foo | echo $strippedName)` which is just braindamaged.
Fixed the implementation and all invocations.

Also update `makeOverridable` so that uses of `overrideAttrs` can be
followed by `override` and `overrideDerivation`, i.e. they can be
mix-and-matched.

to learn only one way.

- 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`.

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.
