this allows us to set the equivalent of an RPATH for assemblies.
* gtk-sharp: use the DLL fixer. It's not perfect yet: I still have to
set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH for monodoc to include the gtk-sharp lib

This seems to be gtk-sharp's fault; it doesn't have an entry for
those libraries in its DLL maps.

/nix/store/ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff. Ugly hack to prevent
undeclared references but it works.
* We don't need Glib's dynamic libraries in the first bootstrap stage;
delete them. Actually the downloaded Glibc binary is only needed
for building Glibc, since GCC needs a C compiler to build some
programs in `configure'. So static linking is fine for that. Maybe
it would be better to patch `configure' so that we don't need a
pre-built Glibc at all.
* Set the svn:executable property on `cp' and `patchelf'.
* In Glibc, revert to LinuxThreads. Maybe NPTL will work, but TLS
support is a problem.

updated it to 20050110.

* MythTV: the setup program works :-).
* Added XmlTV. This requires a huge number of Perl modules, so...
* Added a generic builder for Perl modules. I'm lazy so the modules
are defined directly in all-packages-generic.nix. The generic
builder also patches Perl scripts to include a hard-coded Perl

it works, and subsequently switching back to windowed mode (Ctrl-F)

fixed with hooks for genericBuild
- The graph library requires x11 and the configure

X11. Fixed by using patched configure script from

a consequence the graph library is not build until
we have X11 support in Nix.

An interesting complication is that we have to change the ELF type
of the executable from `Linux' to `SVR4', otherwise the
`ld-linux.so.2' trick to override the glibc used doesn't work
(apparently `Linux' is not a recognised ELF type!).
UT doesn't work with software Mesa, so right now we impurily use
`/usr/lib/libGL.so'. I cannot really test whether it works with
hardware Mesa, since it barfs with an error about missing OpenGL
extensions. But that's probably because I'm testing this on an
iBook over an SSH connection to a Linux machine.
svn path=/nixpkgs/trunk/; revision=1047
to deploy existing binary-only components.
We use the `ld-linux.so.2 PROGRAM' trick to force the use of our own
glibc, and set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to point to the required libraries
(X11, Mesa).
Since Mesa is software-only, Q3A is rather slow. I'll have to
figure out how to use the Mesa from XFree86 (X.Org), since it knows
how to use DRI (or at least speak the GLX protocol). Unfortunately
the xlibs people haven't modularised that part of XFree86 yet.
Also, the flag `+set s_initsound 0' has to be passed to Quake to
disable sound, otherwise it segfaults on startup. It doesn't do
this with the normal glibc, which is strange. Maybe it tries to
dynamically load some sound library or something.

the tree being fetched from a Subversion repository. The revision
number is now optional (and defaults to HEAD).
This makes `fetchsvn' more pure. First, a URL/revision tuple does
not uniquely identify a file resource, since the repository itself
might change. Second, `svn:external' attributes can cause arbitrary
resources to be exported.
A script `nix-prefetch-svn' has been provided to determine the hash
of a URL.

adds the `.../share/aclocal' directory of every build input to
`ACLOCAL_PATH'.

* Graphviz requires the X Athena widgets, which in turn requires the X
miscellaneous utilities library; added those. However it doesn't
work yet since libXt is broken.

On the downside, the build process of stdenvLinux builds gcc 9 times

builders for typical Autoconf-style to be much shorten, e.g.,
. $stdenv/setup
genericBuild
The generic builder does lots of stuff automatically:
- Unpacks source archives specified by $src or $srcs (it knows about
gzip, bzip2, tar, zip, and unpacked source trees).
- Determines the source tree.
- Applies patches specified by $patches.
- Fixes libtool not to search for libraries in /lib etc.
- Runs `configure'.
- Runs `make'.
- Runs `make install'.
- Strips debug information from static libraries.
- Writes nested log information (in the format accepted by
`log2xml').
There are also lots of hooks and variables to customise the generic
builder. See `stdenv/generic/docs.txt'.
* Adapted the base packages (i.e., the ones used by stdenv) to use the
generic builder.
* We now use `curl' instead of `wget' to download files in `fetchurl'.
* Neither `curl' nor `wget' are part of stdenv. We shouldn't
encourage people to download stuff in builders (impure!).
* Updated some packages.
* `buildinputs' is now `buildInputs' (but the old name also works).
* `findInputs' in the setup script now prevents inputs from being
processed multiple times (which could happen, e.g., if an input was
a propagated input of several other inputs; this caused the size
variables like $PATH to blow up exponentially in the worst case).
* Patched GNU Make to write nested log information in the format
accepted by `log2xml'. Also, prior to writing the build command,
Make now writes a line `building X' to indicate what is being
built. This is unfortunately often obscured by the gigantic tool
invocations in many Makefiles. The actual build commands are marked
`unimportant' so that they don't clutter pages generated by
`log2html'.

checked whether absolute paths passed to gcc/ld refer to the store,
which is wrong: they can also refer to the build tree
(/tmp/nix-...).
* Less static composition in the construction of stdenv-nix-linux:
gcc-wrapper and generic are now passed in as arguments, rather then
referenced by relative path. This makes it easier to hack on a
specific stage of the bootstrap process (before, a change to, e.g.,
generic/setup.sh would cause all bootstrap stages to be redone).

- gcc/ld-wrappers have been factored out into a separate
derivation. This allows a working gcc to be installed in the user
environment. (Previously the Nix gcc didn't work because it
needed a whole bunch of flags to point to glibc.)
- Better modularity: packages can specify hooks into the setup
scripts. For instance, setup no longer knows about the
PKG_CONFIG_PATH variable; pkgconfig can set it up instead.
- gcc not longer depends on binutils. This simplifies the bootstrap
process.

(stdenv) on Linux. The previous 1-stage bootstrap was insufficient,
because the tools in stdenv where built by native tools. For
instance, the Nix bash had a reference to /lib/libncurses. This
doesn't happen with a 2-stage bootstrap, since the bash built in
stage 2 will be built with the gcc built in stage 1, which doesn't
search in the "standard" locations.

a big problem, so I decided to require to user to get the
file and put it in some location in the file system. wget
doesn't seem to accept the file scheme however, so I had to
move the copying into the builder itself. The builder checks
the md5 hash of the downloaded file. Maybe having a separate
'fetchfile' would be useful to make a file in the outside
world pure. I tried to add this to build-support, but this
obviously did not work. I still committed it. Just remove it
if you think that it sucks.
