| 2012-05-30 | "nix-store -l": support compressed logs | Eelco Dolstra | |
| 2012-05-29 | Reserve some disk space for the garbage collector | Eelco Dolstra | |
| We can't open a SQLite database if the disk is full. Since this prevents the garbage collector from running when it's most needed, we reserve some dummy space that we can free just before doing a garbage collection. This actually revives some old code from the Berkeley DB days. Fixes #27. | |||
| 2012-05-29 | Add option ‘build-keep-log’ to enable/disable writing of build logs | Eelco Dolstra | |
| Fixes #26. | |||
| 2012-05-24 | Clean up the installation section; document the generic binary tarballs | Eelco Dolstra | |
| 2012-05-22 | Fix owner/group in tar invocation | Eelco Dolstra | |
| 2012-05-22 | Generate binary tarballs for installing Nix | Eelco Dolstra | |
| For several platforms we don't currently have "native" Nix packages (e.g. Mac OS X and FreeBSD). This provides the next best thing: a tarball containing the closure of Nix, plus a simple script "nix-finish-install" that initialises the Nix database, registers the paths in the closure as valid, and runs "nix-env -i /path/to/nix" to initialise the user profile. The tarball must be unpacked in the root directory. It creates /nix/store/... and /usr/bin/nix-finish-install. Typical installation is as follows: $ cd / $ tar xvf /path/to/nix-1.1pre1234_abcdef-x86_64-linux.tar.bz2 $ nix-finish-install (if necessary add ~/.nix-profile/etc/profile.d/nix.sh to the shell login scripts) After this, /usr/bin/nix-finish-install can be deleted, if desired. The downside to the binary tarball is that it's pretty big (~55 MiB for x86_64-linux). | |||
| 2012-05-22 | Remove $FONTCONFIG_FILE hack from nix-profile.sh | Eelco Dolstra | |
| It's no longer needed because Nixpkgs' fontconfig uses /etc/fonts/fonts.conf as a default, just like other distributions. | |||
| 2012-05-21 | Add an experimental nix-make file | Eelco Dolstra | |
| To use it, just do (e.g.) "nix-build build.nix -A nix_env". | |||

| 2012-05-10 | Build Ubuntu 12.04 packages | Eelco Dolstra | |
| 2012-05-10 | Document "nix-build --run-env" | Eelco Dolstra | |
| 2012-05-10 | Support building with the Perl XS bindings disabled | Eelco Dolstra | |
| Since the Perl bindings require shared libraries, this is required on platforms such as Cygwin where we do a static build. | |||
| 2012-05-10 | Document "nix-store --add" | Eelco Dolstra | |
| 2012-05-10 | Remove an obsolete hack | Eelco Dolstra | |
| 2012-05-09 | Disable building in chroot for Nix's corepkgs | Eelco Dolstra | |
| The dependencies of the corepkgs are not necessarily in the chroot (or in the Nix store), so don't build them in a chroot. | |||
| 2012-05-09 | Document some nix-store subcommands | Eelco Dolstra | |
| 2012-05-09 | Document $NIX_PATH / -I | Eelco Dolstra | |

| 2012-05-07 | Now *really* prevent accumulation of old manifests | Eelco Dolstra | |
| 2012-05-04 | Fix some 32-bit builds | Eelco Dolstra | |
| Perl on some 32-bit systems needs -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64. See also commit 02f1363e19b7df7cccc3523805bbf4fafe429529. | |||
| 2012-05-04 | Drop the Perl-specific CFLAGS | Eelco Dolstra | |
| This fixes the Darwin build (http://hydra.nixos.org/build/2517380). Hopefully it doesn't break other builds. | |||
| 2012-05-04 | Don't build for old Debian/Ubuntu releases that don't have a sufficiently ↵ | Eelco Dolstra | |
| new SQLite | |||
| 2012-05-04 | Don't build for old Fedora releases that don't have a sufficiently new SQLite | Eelco Dolstra | |
| 2012-05-04 | Require SQLite >= 3.6.19 | Eelco Dolstra | |
| Nix needs SQLite's foreign key constraint feature, which was introduced in 3.6.19. Without it, the database won't be cleaned up correctly when paths are deleted. See e.g. http://hydra.nixos.org/build/2494142. | |||
| 2012-05-01 | Use mkpath instead of make_path | Eelco Dolstra | |
| Perl <= 5.10 doesn't have make_path. See e.g. http://hydra.nixos.org/build/2493981. | |||
| 2012-05-01 | Do "make installcheck" for RPM builds | Eelco Dolstra | |
| 2012-05-01 | Do "make installcheck" for Debian builds | Eelco Dolstra | |
| 2012-04-30 | * Add an option ‘build-use-substitutes’, which can be set to ‘false’ | Eelco Dolstra | |
| to disable use of substitutes; i.e., force building from source. Fixes Nix/221. | |||
| 2012-04-30 | Support mandatory system features in the build hook | Eelco Dolstra | |
| Mandatory features are features that MUST be present in a derivation's requiredSystemFeatures attribute. One application is performance testing, where we have a dedicated machine to run performance tests (and nothing else). Then we would add the label "perf" to the machine's mandatory features and to the performance testing derivations. | |||
| 2012-04-30 | Update the documentation of build-remote.pl | Eelco Dolstra | |
| 2012-04-30 | Handle EPERM when creating a hard link for the chroot | Eelco Dolstra | |
| There is a race condition when doing parallel builds with chroots and the immutable bit enabled. One process may call makeImmutable() before the other has called link(), in which case link() will fail with EPERM. We could retry or wrap the operation in a lock, but since this condition is rare and I'm lazy, we just use the existing copy fallback. Fixes #9. | |||
| 2012-04-26 | Don't use the build hook for unpacking channels | Eelco Dolstra | |
| 2012-04-24 | Fix a warning in the build hook about $progressViewer | Eelco Dolstra | |

| 2012-04-17 | Added utility command ‘nix-instantiate --find-file’ to look up a file in ↵ | Eelco Dolstra | |
| Nix's search path | |||
| 2012-04-16 | Hack to prevent accumulation of old manifests | Eelco Dolstra | |
| 2012-04-16 | Fix obscure race condition in GC root creation | Eelco Dolstra | |
| This should fix rare Hydra errors of the form: error: symlinking `/nix/var/nix/gcroots/per-user/hydra/hydra-roots/7sfhs5fdmjxm8sqgcpd0pgcsmz1kq0l0-nixos-iso-0.1pre33785-33795' to `/nix/store/7sfhs5fdmjxm8sqgcpd0pgcsmz1kq0l0-nixos-iso-0.1pre33785-33795': File exists | |||
| 2012-04-15 | Set a few more close-on-exec flags | Eelco Dolstra | |
| 2012-04-15 | Close almost all file descriptors in the builder | Eelco Dolstra | |
