luaPackages replaced by generated ones:
- bit32
- compat53
- cqueues
- luacyrussasl -> cyrussasl (luarocks name)
- luaexpat
- luadbi -> luadbi front-end module + separate backend modules
luadbi-{mysql,postgresql,sqlite3}
- luafilesystem
- luaossl
- luasec
- luasocket
- luastdlib -> stdlib (luarocks name)
- lrexlib -> lrexlib-pcre (we already have lrexlib-gnu and
lrexlib-posix, lrexlib-pcre however appears to be the variant used in
mudlet, which is the only current dep in nixpkgs)
- luasqlite -> luasql-sqlite3 (luarocks name)
- lfs -> luafilesytem (we literally had two manually written
luafilesystem expressions, under different names)
Changes and additions to overrides to generated luarocks packgaes,
including:
- busted: Install bash completions along with the zsh ones
- cqueues:
- Perform minor surgery on the rockspec to allow using a single
rockspec to build for all supported Lua versions
- Add a patch by @vcunat to work around a build issue
- luuid: Wrote a tiny patch to allow for Lua 5.1/Luajit compatibility
- General changes:
- Sorted the packages
- Attempted to make the formatting consistent
- Preferenced `.override` instead of `.overrideAttrs` wherever
possible
Minor changes to other packages to adjust for the Lua package changes:
- luakit expression simplified
- prosody expression simplified; but users will now need to specify the
luadbi backend module they intend to use in withExtraLibs
- knot-resolver inputs correctd
- mudlet inputs corrected (although this package was and should still be
broken)
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 https://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-19.03 for the latest
release and nixos-unstable for the latest successful build of master:
% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-19.03
For pull requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master.
NixOS Linux distribution source code is located inside
nixos/ folder.
