02c09e01712ce0b61e5c8f7159047699a434f7fc (NixOS/nixpkgs#44558) was reverted in c981787db951afb11c1328461df82d4277ebec07 but, as it turns out, it fixed an issue I didn't know about at the time: the values of `propagateDoc` options were (and now again are) inconsistent with the underlying things those wrappers wrap (see NixOS/nixpkgs#46119), which was (and now is) likely to produce more instances of NixOS/nixpkgs#43547, if not now, then eventually as stdenv changes. This patch (which is a simplified version of the original reverted patch) is the simplest solution to this whole thing: it forces wrappers to directly inspect the outputs of the things they are wrapping instead of making stdenv guess the correct values.
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-18.03
for the latest
release and nixos-unstable
for the latest successful build of master:
% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-18.03
For pull-requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master
.
NixOS Linux distribution source code is located inside
nixos/
folder.
