* Only show/build a package on the platforms listed in meta.platformsEelco Dolstra2013-11-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The function ‘mkDerivation’ now checks whether the current platform type is included in a package's meta.platform field. If not, it throws an exception: $ nix-build -A linux --argstr system x86_64-darwin error: user-thrown exception: the package ‘linux-3.10.15’ is not supported on ‘x86_64-darwin’ These packages also no longer show up in ‘nix-env -qa’ output. This means, for instance, that the number of packages shown on x86_64-freebsd has dropped from 9268 to 4764. Since meta.platforms was also used to prevent Hydra from building some packages, there now is a new attribute meta.hydraPlatforms listing the platforms on which Hydra should build the package (which defaults to meta.platforms).
* Allow packages to be marked as "broken" by setting meta.brokenEelco Dolstra2013-11-04
| | | | The effect is that they won't show up in "nix-env -qa" anymore.

* nixos.org/tarballs -> tarballs.nixos.orgEelco Dolstra2013-06-25
| | | | | It's currently the same machine, but tarballs.nixos.org should become an S3/CloudFront site eventually.
* Rewrite the CPAN generator to PerlEelco Dolstra2013-06-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Also: - It's now installable by doing "nix-env -i nix-generate-from-cpan". - It maps dependencies to the correct attribute (e.g. HTML::HeadParser is mapped to HTMLParser). - It automatically selects buildPerlPackage or buildPerlModule. - It's documented in the manual.

* Synchronized stdenv-updates branch with trunk.Peter Simons2011-10-06
|\ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There were conflicting patches of pkgs/os-specific/linux/module-init-tools. Apparently, the expression was updated independently in both branches. I've resolved the conflict by preferring the patches from stdenv-updates, because those patches appeared to be more sophisticated, i.e. they build the manual, etc. svn path=/nixpkgs/branches/stdenv-updates/; revision=29680
