The latest release of libyamlcpp in nixpkgs does not build because it uses an older version of boost than the one in nixpkgs and therefore expects a particular header file which does not exist in the latest boost anymore. For this reason, a later (git) version of libyamlcpp is used here (which actually doesn't even require boost). The substituteInPlace in the prePatch phase is needed because libevdev places its headers in non-standard places, meaning Nix cannot normally find them. The `cut` command removes the first two "-I" characters from the output of `pkg-config`. This needs to be in the prePatch phase because otherwise Nix will patch these lines to `/var/empty`, meaning you would have less specific replacement (in case other lines are also patched to `/var/empty`). I wrote the patch. (I believe it is NixOS specific.) |

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-17.03
for the latest
release and nixos-unstable
for the latest successful build of master:
% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-17.03
For pull-requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master
.
NixOS linux distribution source code is located inside
nixos/
folder.
