Apparently, async mode for libftdi 0.20 is allegedly disabled when using libusb-compat wrappers, as libftdi does not really support libftdi 1.x. Because we only ship libusb-compat, this would normally make async mode completely unavailable. Except distributions like Ubuntu just disable this check completely! See this patch from Launchpad: https://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-branches/ubuntu/trusty/libftdi/trusty/view/head:/debian/patches/04_async_mode.diff In the spirit of good competition (and feature parity for software that *doesn't* support the synchronous mode, thanks to Ubuntu silently ensuring their async-only paths work) we enable this just the same.

Nixpkgs is a collection of packages for the Nix package manager. It is periodically built and tested by the Hydra build daemon as so-called channels. To get channel information via git, add nixpkgs-channels as a remote:
% git remote add channels git://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs-channels.git
For stability and maximum binary package support, it is recommended to maintain
custom changes on top of one of the channels, e.g. nixos-17.09 for the latest
release and nixos-unstable for the latest successful build of master:
% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-17.09
For pull-requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master.
NixOS Linux distribution source code is located inside
nixos/ folder.
