Turns out that in Nixpkgs, derivation is actually called without a
‘name’ argument in some places :-(
|
|
For example:
error: `tail' called on an empty list, at
/home/eelco/Dev/nixpkgs/pkgs/applications/misc/hello/ex-2/default.nix:13:7
|
|
For example, given a derivation with outputs "out", "man" and "bin":
$ nix-build -A pkg
produces ./result pointing to the "out" output;
$ nix-build -A pkg.man
produces ./result-man pointing to the "man" output;
$ nix-build -A pkg.all
produces ./result, ./result-man and ./result-bin;
$ nix-build -A pkg.all -A pkg2
produces ./result, ./result-man, ./result-bin and ./result-2.

‘drvAttrs’. This will simplify the implementation of functions such
as ‘overrideDerivation’ in Nixpkgs, which need to filter out any
added attributes such as outPath.

common attribution so that they're evaluated only once, etc. Note
that the default output is now the first element of the "outputs"
attribute, rather than the first element of the sorted list of
outputs. This seems more user-friendly.
