The upstream sources only compile with masm, so we need to add a patch that translates the masm sources to GNU assembler. Unfortunately, this means, that "generic.nix" is no longer very much generic, but the versions we currently include work fine with the patch. Unfortunately, the boost build still doesn't finish, but we're getting there soon enough. The patch is from https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/7262 and following the discussion it seems that the upstream authors are unwilling to add a gas version for the Windows platform. So in the long term we might need to find a better solution to that, like for example using Wine to run MASM. 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.
