2018-02-18	configure: Add a flag to disable seccomp.	Shea Levy
	This is needed for new arches where libseccomp support doesn't exist yet. Fixes #1878.
2018-02-09	configure.ac: check if lzma has MT support, fix deb build/etc.	Will Dietz

2018-01-29	configure: Use $CPP instead of cpp directly	Ben Gamari
	The latter breaks in the case of cross-compilation, when `cpp` bears a target prefix.
2017-12-30	use libbrotli directly when available	Will Dietz
	* Look for both 'brotli' and 'bro' as external command, since upstream has renamed it in newer versions. If neither are found, current runtime behavior is preserved: try to find 'bro' on PATH. * Limit amount handed to BrotliEncoderCompressStream to ensure interrupts are processed in a timely manner. Testing shows negligible performance impact. (Other compression sinks don't seem to require this)
2017-12-22	Check aws-sdk-cpp version	Eelco Dolstra

2017-05-29	Add a seccomp filter to prevent creating setuid/setgid binaries	Eelco Dolstra
	This prevents builders from setting the S_ISUID or S_ISGID bits, preventing users from using a nixbld* user to create a setuid/setgid binary to interfere with subsequent builds under the same nixbld* uid. This is based on aszlig's seccomp code (47f587700d646f5b03a42f2fa57c28875a31efbe). Reported by Linus Heckemann.
2017-05-15	Add --with-sandbox-shell configure flag	Eelco Dolstra
	And add a 116 KiB ash shell from busybox to the release build. This helps to make sandbox builds work out of the box on non-NixOS systems and with diverted stores.
2017-05-10	Replace readline by linenoise	Eelco Dolstra
	Using linenoise avoids a license compatibility issue (#1356), is a lot smaller and doesn't pull in ncurses.
2017-04-28	Check for libreadline	Eelco Dolstra

2017-04-20	Detect lsof	Eelco Dolstra
	Also, don't use lsof on Linux since it's not needed. Fixes #1328.
2017-03-31	Merge branch 'remove-perl' of https://github.com/shlevy/nix	Eelco Dolstra

2017-03-21	Don't make brotli a hard dependency	Eelco Dolstra

2017-03-15	Add support for brotli compression	Eelco Dolstra
	Build logs on cache.nixos.org are compressed using Brotli (since this allows them to be decompressed automatically by Chrome and Firefox), so it's handy if "nix log" can decompress them.
2017-03-15	Remove dependency on "curl" binary	Eelco Dolstra

2017-02-28	Improve SQLite busy handling	Eelco Dolstra

2017-02-21	Revert "configure.ac: We require C++14 now"	Eelco Dolstra
	This reverts commit 81c53fe8e56f4a4ce10088fe2d7b6a524a6dc126. This check appears to be stricter than we need (it broke a bunch of platforms that previously did build: http://hydra.nixos.org/eval/1331921#tabs-now-fail).
2017-02-08	configure.ac: We require C++14 now	Tuomas Tynkkynen
	At least in the main Makefile we have: GLOBAL_CXXFLAGS += -std=c++14 -g -Wall
2017-02-07	Remove perl dependency.	Shea Levy
	Fixes #341
2016-12-19	Revert "Merge branch 'seccomp' of https://github.com/aszlig/nix"	Eelco Dolstra
	This reverts commit 9f3f2e21edb17dbcd674539dff96efb6cceca10c, reversing changes made to 47f587700d646f5b03a42f2fa57c28875a31efbe.
2016-12-15	Merge branch 'seccomp' of https://github.com/aszlig/nix	Eelco Dolstra

2016-12-08	Drop unused dblatex reference	Eelco Dolstra

2016-12-06	Drop unused WWW::Curl dependency	Eelco Dolstra

2016-11-16	Add build dependency for libseccomp	aszlig
	We're going to use libseccomp instead of creating the raw BPF program, because we have different syscall numbers on different architectures. Although our initial seccomp rules will be quite small it really doesn't make sense to generate the raw BPF program because we need to duplicate it and/or make branches on every single architecture we want to suuport. Signed-off-by: aszlig <aszlig@redmoonstudios.org>
2016-09-20	Add a new option to disable documentation generation at configure time	Adrien Devresse

2016-08-13	remove otool check	Jude Taylor

2016-06-09	Use O_CLOEXEC in most places	Eelco Dolstra

2016-05-30	fix tarball job	Domen Kožar

2016-05-04	Make the aws-cpp-sdk dependency optional	Eelco Dolstra

2016-05-04	Remove obsolete err.h check	Eelco Dolstra

2016-05-04	Remove OpenSSL-based signing	Eelco Dolstra

2016-03-11	Handle ARM triples without an endianness suffix	Nathan Zadoks
	Alpine seems to use this, and it results in a wrong builtins.currentSystem. Big-endian ARM systems have triples starting with armv6eb- or armv7eb-, so this doesn't change any systems that already worked.
2016-03-03	configure.ac: strip -musl in the same way as -gnu	Nathan Zadoks

2016-01-12	Revert "Do not override environment CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS"	Eelco Dolstra
	This reverts commit 80ebd60e7ca3c48a19b94ddaeebb23182b703178. The reason why we cleared CFLAGS/CXXFLAGS was because otherwise we get a default value of -O2, which interferes with the defaults set in the Makefile. (E.g. "make OPTIMIZE=0" should not pass -O2.)
2016-01-05	Do not override environment CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS	Ilya Novoselov
	Looks like 5a05cf4063fc6ea666f3e24c60bd2e9e5526ef4e removed usage of environment CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS by mistake. That change broke building of nix on fedora core 23.
2016-01-05	Merge pull request #685 from vizanto/master	Eelco Dolstra
	POSIX compliant directory access (fixes build on Solaris)
2015-12-10	Build sandbox support etc. unconditionally on Linux	Eelco Dolstra
	Also, use "#if __APPLE__" instead of "#if SANDBOX_ENABLED" to prevent ambiguity.
2015-11-07	Fix build on Solaris	Danny Wilson
	d_type is not part of the POSIX spec unfortunately.
2015-11-04	Require OpenSSL	Eelco Dolstra

2015-10-30	<nix/fetchurl.nix>: Support xz-compressed NARs	Eelco Dolstra

2015-10-21	Add resolve-system-dependencies.pl	Jude Taylor

2015-03-27	Add dependency on libcurl-dev	Eelco Dolstra
	http://hydra.nixos.org/eval/1179370
2015-02-16	Use pivot_root in addition to chroot when possible	Harald van Dijk
	chroot only changes the process root directory, not the mount namespace root directory, and it is well-known that any process with chroot capability can break out of a chroot "jail". By using pivot_root as well, and unmounting the original mount namespace root directory, breaking out becomes impossible. Non-root processes typically have no ability to use chroot() anyway, but they can gain that capability through the use of clone() or unshare(). For security reasons, these syscalls are limited in functionality when used inside a normal chroot environment. Using pivot_root() this way does allow those syscalls to be put to their full use.
2015-02-10	Make libsodium an optional dependency	Eelco Dolstra

2015-02-04	Use libsodium instead of OpenSSL for binary cache signing	Eelco Dolstra
	Sodium's Ed25519 signatures are much shorter than OpenSSL's RSA signatures. Public keys are also much shorter, so they're now specified directly in the nix.conf option ‘binary-cache-public-keys’. The new command ‘nix-store --generate-binary-cache-key’ generates and prints a public and secret key.
2014-11-25	Rely on XML catalogs to find the DocBook schemas and stylesheets	Eelco Dolstra

2014-09-22	configure: Force regeneration of Makefile.config	Eelco Dolstra

2014-09-17	Remove unused w3m dependency	Eelco Dolstra

2014-09-17	On Linux, disable address space randomization	Eelco Dolstra

2014-09-17	Add Make flag to disable optimization	Eelco Dolstra

2014-07-10	Remove maybeVfork	Eelco Dolstra
