[Nix-dev] busybox in a buildenv

Hello, the buildEnv fails to build a profile that only has busybox in it. And somehow using nix-build -K does not leave any temporary directory. If I set busybox and dropbear in the profile, it works. As I don't know how to debug perl, can anyone throw some light on this? And shouldn't nix-build

[Nix-dev] Merging stdenv-updates to trunk - when?

Bon dia, I'm running since some days the nixos and nixpkgs from stdenv-updates in PC, and I think it works quite fine. I run it in non-PC since more than a month, and all works fine there too. For what I tested (which is mostly "my use cases of nixos/nixpkgs") it works. I think we can merge the

Mr Dolstra, can you update http://nixos.org/tarballs/stdenv-linux/ please? I uploaded the loongson2f bootstrap-tools finally, and I managed to generate new bootstrap-tools for i686 too (as glibc 2.12.1 requires gcc 4.4 to build, and we had gcc 4.3 there - http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cg

Hello Ilya, thank you for the packages, but as they are python packages, have you tried using the buildPythonPackage expression? Look at top-level/python-packages.nix. I think the buildPythonPackage expresion may do all the work you are doing here. Regards, Lluís. On Thu, Oct 14, 2010 at 12:12:
