Also made changes to lua package generation system to account for packages like cqueues
that have one version per lua interpreter.
The csv file also accepts comments now.
This should make the composability of kernel configurations more straigthforward.
- now distinguish freeform options from tristate ones
- will look for a structured config in kernelPatches too
one can now access the structuredConfig from a kernel via linux_test.configfile.structuredConfig
in order to reinject it into another kernel, no need to rewrite the config from scratch
The following merge strategies are used in case of conflict:
-- freeform items must be equal or they conflict (mergeEqualOption)
-- for tristate (y/m/n) entries, I use the mergeAnswer strategy which takes the best available value, "best" being defined by the user (by default "y" > "m" > "n", e.g. if one entry is both marked "y" and "n", "y" wins)
-- if one item is both marked optional/mandatory, mandatory wins (mergeFalseByDefault)
luarocks-nix is a fork of luarocks that adds a "nix" command capable of
converting luarocks package descriptions into nix derivations (though nixpkgs is
still missing the lua infrastructure).
better support for luarocks in a shell (helpful to develop on luarocks).
Also adds unpacker for src.rock/rockspec files.
Also allows to use luarocks to build cmake based rocks.
gImageReader is a GUI for tesseract, an optical character recognition engine.
While the UI supports Qt/Gtk, I have only added the gtk one in the nix derivation.
when calling python3Packages.gpgme, it was still picking python2.
Changed withPython into pythonSupport since it's the convention.
I had to enable ncurses too because of this error when configuring:

I introduced an error in, install -D will create the folders until the last component excluded
so I needed to add the filename for it to create _khard

First change is to override the nm-dispatcher systemd service so that
it puts coreutils (wc/env/...) and iproute in PATH.
Second change is to make sure userscripts have the execute bit.
Presents the options available (linuxManualConfig versus overriding
extraConfig, ignoreConfigErrors, autoModules, kernelPreferBuiltin.
For advanced hostPlatform customization refer to the commands shared by ericson1234 at
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/33813 but it is too advanced to
put in the doc.
When doing source routing/multihoming, it's practical to give names to routing
tables. The absence of the rt_table file in /etc make this impossible.
This patch recreates these files on rebuild so that they can be modified
by the user see NixOS#38638.
iproute2 is modified to look into config.networking.iproute2.confDir instead of
/etc/iproute2.
when in a shell, export variable WIRESHARK_RUN_FROM_BUILD_DIRECTORY to be able to run the newly built wireshark
else one get:
./build/run/wireshark: error while loading shared libraries: libwscodecs.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
see https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/29638
after seeing
`adjtime failed: Invalid argument` in my syslog, I tried using
`ntpd -s` but it would trigger
`/etc/ntpd.conf: No such file or directory`
see https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/31885
Instead of running the daemon with a specific config file, use the
standard file so that user are able to use the ntp executable without
having to look for the current config file.
Allow out of band communication between qemu VMs and the host.
Useful to retrieve IPs of VMs from the host (for instance when libvirt can't analyze
DHCP requests because VMs are configured with static addresses or when
there is connectivity default).
ns-3 is a discrete event C++ network simulator developed at www.nsnam.org .
Python bindings & manual building are disabled by default but you can
override it.
- added gnupg to checkInputs
- generate manpage (optional)
- move alot.desktop file to $out/share/applications
- disabled tests as they need the network (dependency on twisted)
Thanks to Sarah Brofeldt, Ben Mcginnes for their help (and other) and
to FRidh for the repeated careful reviews.
l2tp saves its secrets into /etc/ipsec.d but strongswan would not read
them. l2tp checks for /etc/ipsec.secrets includes /etc/ipsec.d and if
not tries to write into it.
Solution:
Have the strongswan module create /etc/ipsec.d and /etc/ipsec.secrets
when networkmanager_l2tp is installed.
Include /etc/ipsec.secrets in
/nix/store/hash-strongswan/etc/ipsec.secrets so that it can find l2tp
secrets.
Also when the ppp 'nopeerdns' option is used, the DNS resolver tries to
write into an alternate file /etc/ppp/resolv.conf. This fails when
/etc/ppp does not exist so the module creates it by default.
the new version brings a new panel in IPsec settings which allows to
reenable old algorithms for IPsec phases 1/2 (dropped in recent libreswan/strongswan etc).
Also updates the homepage with the new one.
- defined buildLinux as generic.nix instead of manual-config.nix. This
makes kernel derivations a tad more similar to your typical derivations.
- moved $buildRoot to within the source folder, this way it doesn't have to be created before the unpackPhase
and make it easier to work on kernel source without running the unpackPhase
New thin laptops don't have an ethernet port and so rely on wifi to get
access. With the minimal installer, setup wpa_supplicant can be hard if
it is the first time so here we provide an example.
