Hi.
I am running nixos 16.03. I am triyng to override the qemu package to
include brlapi support. (Under Debian, I did this by patching the
corresponding package, see [1] for the reference.) Before actually
sending a pull request, I wanted to test it (and the required
dependencies, which are not met (it for example requires brlapi, but I
don't even come that far)), using a package override.
I attached my config.nix as it is right now (it contains some commented
old configuration). When running
nix-env --upgrade --fallback --leq
I get the error message
error: attribute ‘override’ missing, at
/nix/store/vaxwq6y3sacz51vi3z7bydn3nbwp76sj-nixos-16.03-16.03.1299.a8e0739/nixos-16.03/pkgs/top-level/all-packages.nix:10966:23
I asked on freenode.net/#nixos, and another person answered: "I get far
enough to get a build error: ERROR: User requested feature brlapi
configure was not able to find it. Install brlapi devel" and "I'm on
16.03 indeed"
That probably means that there is something wrong with my system. But I
don't really have an idea where to look for this.
Best Regards,
Christoph-Simon Senjak
