Hi Guys I'm having some trouble getting nix to detect my HTTP proxy settings. It seems to work as expected when using channels. So the below works. $ nix-channel --add channel_name http://nix.cs.uu.nl/dist/nix/channels-v3/nixpkgs-unstable $ nix-channel --update ... $ nix-env -i coreutils # this works as expected
However, if I checkout the packages via svn, my environment proxy settings don't trickle through, so (after clearing out everything) this breaks. nix-env -if /scratch/nix-pkgs coreutils # this hangs. >From poking into the code, it seems in build.cc drv.env["impureEnvVars"] is empty (although the relevant config for fetchurl has this variable defined). Any ideas on whats going on? Cheers Jeeva. NOTICE This e-mail and any attachments are confidential and may contain copyright material of Macquarie Group Limited or third parties.
