This commit changes the dependencies of stdenv, and clean-up the stdenv story by removing the `defaultStdenv` attribute as well as the `bootStdenv` parameter. Before, the final bootstrapping stage's stdenv was provided by all-packages, which was iterating multiple times over the top-level/default.nix expression, and non-final bootstrapping stages' stdenvs were explicitly specified with the `bootStdenv` parameter. Now, all stages' stdenvs are specified with the `stdenv` parameter. For non-final bootstrapping stages, this is a small change---basically just rename the parameter. For the final stage, top-level/default.nix takes the chosen stdenv and makes the final stage with it. `allPackages` is used to make all bootstrapping stages, final and non-final alike. It's basically the expression of `stage.nix` (along with a few partially-applied default arguments) Note, the make-bootstrap-tools scripts are temporarily broken |

Nixpkgs is a collection of packages for the Nix package manager. It is periodically built and tested by the hydra build daemon as so-called channels. To get channel information via git, add nixpkgs-channels as a remote:
% git remote add channels git://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs-channels.git
For stability and maximum binary package support, it is recommended to maintain
custom changes on top of one of the channels, e.g. nixos-16.09
for the latest
release and nixos-unstable
for the latest successful build of master:
% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-16.09
For pull-requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master
.
NixOS linux distribution source code is located inside
nixos/
folder.
