Previously, the getConfig variable 'brokenRedHatKernel' was used to switch back
to glibc 2.5, which fixes various run-time problems on Red Hat Linux. Now, the
same can be achieved by configuring
{
packageOverrides = pkgs:
{
glibc = pkgs.useFromStdenv "glibc" pkgs.glibc25;
};
}
in $NIXPKGS_CONFIG. Similarly, the argument 'installLocales' can be overridden
by setting:
{
packageOverrides = pkgs:
{
glibc = pkgs.useFromStdenv "glibc" (pkgs.glibc25.override { installLocales = true; });
};
}
