fetchurl {
url = http://heanet.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/zapping/zapping-0.9.6.tar.bz2;
md5 = "8306775c6a11de4d72345b5eee970ea6";
};
you can write
fetchurl {
url = mirror://sourceforge/zapping/zapping-0.9.6.tar.bz2;
md5 = "8306775c6a11de4d72345b5eee970ea6";
};
which causes fetchurl to try the SourceForge mirrors listed in the
`sourceforge' attribute in build-support/fetchurl/mirrors.nix.
(They're currently tried in sequence, and the lists of mirrors are
not configurable yet.)
The syntax for mirror URLs is mirror://site/path/to/file, where
`site' is currently one of `sourceforge', `gnu' (mirrors of
ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu) and `kernel' (mirrors of
http://www.all.kernel.org/pub/).

fetching a file with hash HASH of type TYPE, we first try to
download <base-url>/<type>/<hash>, where <base-url> is one of a list
of mirrors. For instance, given
src = fetchurl {
url = http://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/2.0.0.6/source/firefox-2.0.0.6-source.tar.bz2;
sha1 = "eb72f55e4a8bf08e8c6ef227c0ade3d068ba1082";
};
and the mirror list [http://nix.cs.uu.nl/dist/tarballs], we first
try to download
eb72f55e4a
and if that fails, we use the original URL.
The list of mirrors is not yet user-configurable.
* `fetchurl' now also accepts an argument `urls' instead of `url' for
a list of alternative download locations, which fetchurl will try in
sequence.

can be installed in a user environment without conflict. This is
useful if you need gcov (which isn't symlinked in the GCC wrapper).

to the gcc invocation.
If we pass a flag like -Wl, then gcc will call the linker unless it
can figure out that it has to do something else (e.g., because of a
"-c" flag). So if no non-flag arguments are given, don't pass any
linker flags. This catches cases like "gcc" (should just print
"gcc: no input files") and "gcc -v" (should print the version).

* Removed substitute, it's part of the generic builder now.
* stdenv-initial (Linux): use the real generic builder script. This
does require that sed is in the path of the builder of the initial
stdenv.

* If the environment variable buildCommand is set, then eval that
instead of doing the build phases. This is used by the runCommand
function in all-packages.nix to allow one-lines like
foo = runCommand "foo" {} "mkdir $out; echo foo > $out/foo";
svn path=/nixpkgs/trunk/; revision=7298
`@var@' in the file `src', writing the result to $out, where `var'
is any environment variable starting with a lowercase character.
Example:
genericSubstituter {
src = ./file;
foo = "bla";
shell = bash + "/bin/sh";
};
will replace `@foo@' with `bla' and `@shell@' with
`/nix/store/...-bash-.../bin/sh'.

we use the GCC wrapper in a user environment, the wrong assembler
will be called. This is not usually a problem, but sometimes it is
(e.g., when using G++ 4.1.1 with binutils 2.16 or so).

Glibc. This is useful when building GCC.
* gcc-wrapper: the dynamic linker has a different name on x86_64 and
powerpc.
* gcc-wrapper: "glibc" -> "libc", because someday we might support
different C libraries.
* gcc: don't do a multilib build (e.g., 32-bit support on x86_64),
don't need it.
* gcc: merge in support for static builds.
* gcc: various simplifications in the compiler/linker flags, hope they
work.

contains arbitrary information about a package, like this:
meta = {
homepage = "http://gcc.gnu.org/";
license = "GPL/LGPL";
description = "GNU Compiler Collection, 4.0.x";
};
The "meta" attribute is not passed to the actual derivation
operation, so it's not a dependency --- changes to "meta" attributes
don't trigger a recompilation.
Now we have to standardise some useful attributes ;-)

Even though you could just inherit binutils it is conceptually cleaner (I
think) to make these tools available here.
