* setup.sh: removed some obsolete features, specifically some that
were only used by the old build farm.
* addToSearchPath: removed some parameters that weren't used
anywhere.

instead of "gcc-4.3.3". This fixed the long-standing annoyance that
you can't distinguish the two in (say) nix-store -qR.
* On x86_64-linux, put $out/lib64 in the RPATH in addition to
$out/lib, because some packages (in particular GCC) put libraries in
$out/lib64 and ended up linking against the wrong library.
* Strip $out/lib64.
* Removed g77_42 because it's exactly the same as gfortran.

function by redefining it, like
buildPhase() {

set
buildPhase = "true";

* Removed substitute, it's part of the generic builder now.
* stdenv-initial (Linux): use the real generic builder script. This
does require that sed is in the path of the builder of the initial
stdenv.
svn path=/nixpkgs/trunk/; revision=7498
This has a major advantage: you can write hooks directly in Nix
expressions. For instance, rather than write a builder like this:
source $stdenv/setup
postInstall=postInstall
postInstall() {
ln -sf gzip $out/bin/gunzip
ln -sf gzip $out/bin/zcat
}
genericBuild
(the gzip builder), you can just add this attribute to the
derivation:
postInstall = "ln -sf gzip $out/bin/gunzip; ln -sf gzip $out/bin/zcat";
and so a separate build script becomes unnecessary. This should
allow us to get rid of most builders in Nixpkgs.
* Allow configure and make arguments to contain whitespace.
Previously, you could say, for instance
configureFlags="CFLAGS=-O0"
but not
configureFlags="CFLAGS=-O0 -g"
since the `-g' would be interpreted as a separate argument to
configure. Now you can say
configureFlagsArray=("CFLAGS=-O0 -g")
or similarly
configureFlagsArray=("CFLAGS=-O0 -g" "LDFLAGS=-L/foo -L/bar")
which does the right thing. Idem for makeFlags, installFlags,
checkFlags and distFlags.
Unfortunately you can't pass arrays to Bash through the environment,
so you can't put the array above in a Nix expression, e.g.,
configureFlagsArray = ["CFLAGS=-O0 -g"];
since it would just be flattened to a since string. However, you
can use the inline hooks described above:
preConfigure = "configureFlagsArray=(\"CFLAGS=-O0 -g\")";

be passed to derivations that need to apply patches.
* GCC 3.4 is now the default compiler (old GCC renamed to `gcc-3.3').
* The temporary GCCs built during the stdenvLinux bootstrap are now
built without C++ support and without profiling.
* Remove fixincl in GCC 3.4 to prevent a retained dependency on the
previous GCC.
* Always set $prefix in setup.sh, even when there is no configure
script.

On the downside, the build process of stdenvLinux builds gcc 9 times
(3 x 3 bootstrap stages). That's a bit excessive.
svn path=/nixpkgs/trunk/; revision=880
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'.
svn path=/nixpkgs/trunk/; revision=845
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).
svn path=/nixpkgs/trunk/; revision=833
- 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.
