Whether to expose old attribute names for compatibility.
|
|
|
|
The recommended setting is to enable this, as it
|
|
improves backward compatibity, easing updates.
|
|
|
|
The only reason to disable aliases is for continuous
|
|
integration purposes. For instance, Nixpkgs should
|
|
not depend on aliases in its internal code. Projects
|
|
that aren't Nixpkgs should be cautious of instantly
|
|
removing all usages of aliases, as migrating too soon
|
|
can break compatibility with the stable Nixpkgs releases.
