This commit partly reinstates changes from 5465d6f that had been somehow reverted in 17d3eb2. Also, a comment has been added in the hope that future changes won't do the same. Additionally, refactor the LUA_PATH env var to ensure that the internal lgi lua files can't be required explicitly and to avoid possible name clashes (this fixes issue #60232). Finally, rather than using prepending `?.lua` append `;;` to LUA_PATH. Quoting @psychon: > This is interpreted by Lua as "add the default search path here" (which does > indeed contain ?.lua, but also contains more). Testing done: - Build with `nix-build -I /path/to/repo -A awesome` - Start an X session with xterm only - Start xephyr, e.g. `Xephyr :1 -name xephyr -screen 512x384 -ac -br -noreset &` - Run awesome like `DISPLAY=:1.0 ./result/bin/awesome`. Additionally, add `--search` options to expose lua modules that have a name clash with lgi's internal ones (see #60232 for more details) and `require` them in `rc.lua` to prove that they are loaded correctly
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.
