The config.py script doesn't seem to cope very well with symlinks, so let's pass it the right derivation outputs wherever possible and fall back to drv.out. I've disabled the tests because they somehow now seem to cause the build to fail even though the tests failed *before* the merge of the closure-size branch, but the whole build didn't fail regardless. Here is a build from before the closure-size branch merge: http://hydra.nixos.org/build/34367296 If you have a look at the build log, you already see a bunch of failing tests (to be exact: the same set of tests that are failing now with the fix of the preConfigure phase). Other than that, the build now succeeds on my machine. Signed-off-by: aszlig <aszlig@redmoonstudios.org>
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-16.03 for the latest
release and nixos-unstable for the latest successful build of master:
% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-16.03
For pull-requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master.
NixOS linux distribution source code is located inside
nixos/ folder.
