Initial language.{dat,def} configuration files provided by
`texlive.hyphen-base` may declare languages that were not part of the
combined packages. Those are filtered out by a sed script that had few
problems:
1) The sed script was generated from a list of potentially non-unique
packages. Every repetition of a select and print clause would produce a
copy of a language declaration in the output file. This became a problem
for update to the 2018-final, the fmtutil would crash from too much
German hyphenation.
2) The select clauses were ambiguous: both '^% from hyphen' and
'^% from hyphen-welsh' will match a line 'from hyphen-welsh'.
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-18.09 for the latest
release and nixos-unstable for the latest successful build of master:
% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-18.09
For pull requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master.
NixOS Linux distribution source code is located inside
nixos/ folder.
