Eelco Dolstra 45a2c87402 * Support for mirror:// URLs a la Gentoo (NIXPKGS-70). Instead of 
fetchurl {
      url = http://heanet.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/zapping/zapping-0.9.6.tar.bz2;
      md5 = "8306775c6a11de4d72345b5eee970ea6";
    };

  you can write

    fetchurl {
      url = mirror://sourceforge/zapping/zapping-0.9.6.tar.bz2;
      md5 = "8306775c6a11de4d72345b5eee970ea6";
    };

  which causes fetchurl to try the SourceForge mirrors listed in the
  `sourceforge' attribute in build-support/fetchurl/mirrors.nix.
  (They're currently tried in sequence, and the lists of mirrors are
  not configurable yet.)

  The syntax for mirror URLs is mirror://site/path/to/file, where
  `site' is currently one of `sourceforge', `gnu' (mirrors of
  ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu) and `kernel' (mirrors of
  http://www.all.kernel.org/pub/).

*** Updating the kernel configs ***

- Copy the old Nix expression (e.g. linux-2.6.21.nix) to the new one
  (e.g. linux-2.6.22.nix) and update it.
- Add an new attribute to all-packages.nix.

For each platform (i686, x86-64, uml):

- Make an svn copy from the old config (e.g. config-2.6.21-i686-smp)
  to the new one (e.g. (e.g. config-2.6.22-i686-smp).
- Unpack the new kernel.
- Copy the config file for this platform
  (e.g. config-2.6.22-i686-smp) to .config.
- Run `make oldconfig', answer all questions.  (For the uml
  configuration, add "ARCH=um SHELL=bash".)
- Make sure that CONFIG_FB_TILEBLITTING is NOT SET (otherwise fbsplash
  won't work).  If it is, investigate why (there's probably another
  option that forces it to be on) and fix it.
- Copy .config to the new config file (e.g. config-2.6.21-i686-smp).
