For some reason, the current bootstrap tools fail to build gettext: init2.c:37: MPFR assertion failed: (64 - 0) == ((64 - 0)/8) * 8 && sizeof(mp_limb_t) == ((64 - 0)/8) libxml/xpath.c: In function 'xmlXPathCompPathExpr': libxml/xpath.c:10627:1: internal compiler error: Aborted xmlXPathCompPathExpr(xmlXPathParserContextPtr ctxt) { ^ Please submit a full bug report, with preprocessed source if appropriate. See <http://gcc.gnu.org/bugs.html> for instructions. make[5]: *** [libxml/libxml_rpl_la-xpath.lo] Error 1 I didn't investigate why this is the case but rebuilding the bootstrap tools seems to help. I used this old-ish WIP branch https://github.com/dezgeg/nixpkgs/commits/arm-bootstrap since latest master has even more problems with cross-compiling anything. (I will eventually push this stuff and make the ARM bootstraps build on hydra.)
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-15.09
for the latest
release and nixos-unstable
for the latest successful build of master:
% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-15.09
For pull-requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master
.
NixOS linux distribution source code is located inside
nixos/
folder.
