[Nix-dev] force nix-build without binary caches?

2014-12-01 Thread Daniel Hlynskyi
hi, I'm trying to use -K option for nix-build, but it doesn't generate unpacked directory in /tmp, it simply finds it somewhere in cache (or binary cache.nixos.org or hydra.nixos.org). How to force it to build without using cache and generated /tmp/nix-build-* directory? [danbst@master:/tmp/scibui

Hi. I've adopted the following compromise solution: 1) Add the file include/templatecfg.nix with the following contents { config, pkgs, ... } : { environment.etc."template_XResources".source = ../cfg/Xresources; environment.etc."template_vimrc".source = ../cfg/vimrc; environment.etc."templat

Or use (taken from 'man nix.conf'): build-use-substitutes If set to true (default), Nix will use binary substitutes if available. This option can be disabled to force building from source. E.g. nix-build --option build-use-substitutes false Cheers, Rob On Mon, Dec

thanks, now it works. Am I right, if I have Qt-4.8.6 (build dependency of qscintilla) already installed, than I don't need to recompile it when --option binary-caches "" is used for qscintilla? 2014-12-01 11:34 GMT+01:00 Domen Kožar : > $ rm result > $ nix-store --delete /nix/store/kycs9akg1h70wj

It only keeps folders if the build failed. If you want to debug the build process, use "nix-shell '' -A qscintilla" and go through the build phases (unpackPhase, cd dir, patchPhase, configurePhase, buildPhase, installPhase). See also http://lethalman.blogspot.com/2014/08/nix-pill-10-developing-wit
