Oh, I see. My assumption was that you had a pre-existing Nix and were doing the dev-shell thing described in here: https://github.com/NixOS/nix/blob/master/doc/manual/hacking.xml#L29-L31 Yeah, I don't know how one is supposed to bootstrap a new platform nowadays. On Sat, Apr 2, 2016 at 5:13 PM, M

One other option is that PKG_CONFIG environment variable is not set to find your installed version of liblzma. Otherwise you should probably open a bug on https://github.com/NixOS/nix and hope that Eelco or Shea got time to investigate this issue. On Sat, Apr 2, 2016 at 9:13 PM, Michiel Leenaars

Hi Daniel, Nicolas, thanks for your suggestions. @Daniel: I can't yet run configurePhase, because I'm trying to install nix itself. My complete actions are as attached. @Nicolas: the log indicates that pkg-config with at least version 0.9.0... is present. Best, Michiel DP> Run configurePhase

You can look for all the dependencies in the way we build the tarball in nix/release.nix file. I think the problem might be that you are missing pkgconfig, which is used to locate the inputs. I would hope that any dependency is being explicitly list in the release.nix file. On Sat, Apr 2, 2016 at

[Nix-dev] New undeclared dependency for Nix itself?

2016-04-02 Thread ml . software
Hi all, I wanted to see what the status was of FreeBSD support (basically because I a jail running that needed some new software and I'd like Nix to manage the dependencies), and noticed something unexpected: 1) I clone the Nix git repository from https://github.com/NixOS/nix 2) I execute ./boots
