systemd is a fairly large dependency, and it doesn't appear to be necessary in all circumstances - e.g. when openvpn is not run as a systemd service (as is usually the case when it is run in a Docker container). This change makes the dependency on systemd optional, controlled by a new argument `useSystemd`. The default behaviour remains the same as it was before this change: enabled only on Linux systems. For me, this change reduces the size of my container image (dominated by the closure of openvpn) from about 110 MB to 45 MB. Version 2: rename argument to `useSystemd` (was `systemdSupport`), and rebase onto master |

Nixpkgs is a collection of packages for the Nix package manager. It is periodically built and tested by the Hydra build daemon as so-called channels. To get channel information via git, add nixpkgs-channels as a remote:
% git remote add channels git://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs-channels.git
For stability and maximum binary package support, it is recommended to maintain
custom changes on top of one of the channels, e.g. nixos-17.09
for the latest
release and nixos-unstable
for the latest successful build of master:
% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-17.09
For pull-requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master
.
NixOS Linux distribution source code is located inside
nixos/
folder.
