Maybe we should reverse the situation?
Obviously, we should try to avoid building just what we need each time
and always ending up with a bunch of near-identical builds.
We can already have .passthru.function in any package
Hi Michael,
Obviously, we should try to avoid building just what

I'm sorry, but this isn't obvious to me. Granted, if it can
be avoided at no other cost, then yes, ok. But my priorities

Independently of .passthru.function, this sounds like a good plan
to me. You check your required flags against defaults. If they're
met, you reuse the default. If they're not met, you adapt on the fly,
but warn. Actually, it could be a global configuration setting to
either be silent about

would help me a lot next time I run into this if nix gave me a more
detailed explanation of what happened. Any chance this could be
added?
Hi Erick,
At the risk of sounding annoying:
I don't want an error message. I want NixOS to automatically
rebuild svn with perlBindings enabled. An error message is like

and try again. I'm reminded of situations with other package
managers
I left out setting the svn perl bindings:
subversion = {
perlBindings = true;
};
This was tripping this assert in .../git/default.nix:
assert svnSupport - (subversion != null perlLibs != []
subversion.perlBindings);
But there was no warning or message explaining what was going
