New features ------------ * Processes under PRoot now appear with their real names, that is, they are not renamed ld-linux.so or prooted-... anymore. * Own ELF loader. Fixes ----- * Most bugs related to shebang support -- ie. #! at the beginning of a program -- were fixed. * It is now possible to use GDB against multi-threaded programs under PRoot x86_64 and x86. * It is possible to execute x86_64 programs from x86 programs again. * It is possible to use x86 ptrace-based programs (strace, gdb, ...) under PRoot x86_64 again. * The loader is now built with the build-id linker option explicitly disabled. This special section might interfere with loaded programs. * The loader can now load relocatable objects that have a predefined base address.
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.
