The munin-node service used wrapProgram to inject environment variables. This doesn't work because munin plugins depend on argv[0], which is overwritten when the executable is a script with a shebang line (example below). This commit removes the wrappers and instead passes the required environment variables to munin-node. Eliminating the wrappers resulted in some broken plugins, e.g., meminfo and hddtemp_smartctl. That was fixed with the per-plugin configuration. Example: The plugin if_eth0 is a symlink to /.../plugins/if_, which uses $0 to determine that it should monitor traffic on the eth0 interface. if_ is a wrapped program, and runs `exec -a "$0" .if_-wrapped` .if_-wrapped has a "#!/nix/.../bash" line, which results in bash changing $0, and as a result the plugin thinks my interface is called "-wrapped".
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.
