 It looks like firefox 17.0.1 has a higher priority right now in
 nixpkgs.  You can install firefox 18 explicitly by
 
 nix-env -i firefox-18.0-with-plugins
 
 (Incidentally, firefox 17.0.1 has known security vulnerabilities.
 Wouldn't that be an argument for making 18 the default, even if the
 expression isn't as well-tested?)

I didn't know about the security vulnerabilities, but when I added firefox 18.0,
I didn't know what to do about lowPrio, because sometimes we have had newer
versions with lowPrio.

I always end up using the latest, *if it works*. I guess you propose something
similar.

Lluís.

[Nix-dev] nix-env -qc firefox

2013-01-11 Thread Petar Bogdanovic 
Hi,

something doesn't seem right here:

$ nix-env -qc firefox
firefox-17.0.1-with-plugins   18.0-with-plugins

$ nix-env -u firefox

$ nix-env -qc firefox
firefox-17.0.1-with-plugins   18.0-with-plugins

Also:

$ nix-env -qc git
git-1.8.1-full   1.8.1-with-svn

$ nix-env -u git

$ nix-env -qc git
git-1.8.1-full   1.8.1-with-svn

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Petar Bogdanovic
