2015-09-30doc: generate haskell-users-guide.xml from Markdown input via PandocPeter Simons3-913/+715
Editing Docbook is no fun, IMHO, so I'd rather store the Haskell documentation in Markdown format and use Pandoc to convert that into Docbook as part of the build process.

Frequently using multiple *almost* identical attributes is bad.

2015-09-17Enable separate debug infoEelco Dolstra1-0/+28
You can now pass separateDebugInfo = true; to mkDerivation. This causes debug info to be separated from ELF binaries and stored in the "debug" output. The advantage is that it enables installing lean binaries, while still having the ability to make sense of core dumps, etc.
2015-09-15xlibs: replace occurrences by xorgVladimír Čunát1-1/+1
This seems to have been confusing people, using both xlibs and xorg, etc. - Avoided renaming local (and different) xlibs binding in gcc*. - Fixed cases where both xorg and xlibs were used. Hopefully everything still works as before.

2015-08-05Unify NixOS and Nixpkgs channel structureEelco Dolstra1-4/+4
This is primarily to ensure that -I nixpkgs=https://nixos.org/channels/nixos-unstable/nixexprs.tar.xz and -I nixpkgs=https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs-channels/archive/nixos-unstable.tar.gz and -I nixpkgs=https://nixos.org/channels/nixpkgs-unstable/nixexprs.tar.xz behave consistently. It also allows installing packages via "nix-env -iA nixos.<pkg>" rather than "nixos.pkgs.<pkg>". It would be even better to allow "nixpkgs.<pkg>", but that requires a change to nix-channel. Fixes #7659.

language-support python: propagatedBuildInputs
2015-07-17doc: gnu hello is much simpler than cpioMatthias Beyer1-9/+9
This patch changes the documentation about simple packages. cpio was listed as simplest possible package, which is not true anymore, gnu hello is much simpler.
