Ok, I agree. But there are plenty of "-wrapper"s, but only ghc and python use it as a suffix _after_ the version. This results in python-2.7.1 being "upgraded" to python-2.7.1-wrapper by 'nix-env -u \*'. Why not python-wrapper-2.7.1? regards florian -- Florian Friesdorf <f...@chaoflow.net> GPG FPR: 7A13 5EEE 1421 9FC2 108D BAAF 38F8 99A3 0C45 F083 Jabber/XMPP: f...@chaoflow.net IRC: chaoflow on freenode,ircnet,blafasel,OFTC
