2016-10-20texlive manual: adds import of nixpkgs in nix-replRichard Zetterberg1-0/+1
I wanted to list the different texlive collections using the nix-repl, as per the [manual](https://nixos.org/nixpkgs/manual/#idm140737316065984). It didn't work, since the nixpkgs were not loaded. Doing `:l <nixpkgs>` first resolved the problem. This change adds the nixpkgs loading step to the manual so that the next inexperienced person don't have to figure out why it didn't work. I tested this on NixOS unstable (16.09pre90254.6b20d5b) with nix-repl 1.11.3.

2016-10-16Python: remove pythonSmallFrederik Rietdijk1-1/+1
In #19309 a separate output for tkinter was added. Several dependencies of Python depend indirectly on Python. We have the following two paths: ``` ‘python-2.7.12’ - ‘tk-8.6.6’ - ‘libXft-2.3.2’ - ‘libXrender-0.9.10’ - ‘libX11-1.6.4’ - ‘libxcb-1.12’ - ‘libxslt-1.1.29’- ‘libxml2-2.9.4’ - ‘python-2.7.12’ ‘python-2.7.12’ - ‘tk-8.6.6’ - ‘libXft-2.3.2’ - ‘fontconfig-2.12.1’ - ‘dejavu-fonts-2.37’ - ‘fontforge-20160404’ - ‘python-2.7.12’ ``` Because only `tkinter` needs this, I added ``` pythonSmall = python.override {x11Support = false;}; ``` to break the infinite recursion. We also still have the output `tkinter`. However, we might as well build without x11Support by default. Then we build with x11Support as well so we get the tkinter module and put that in a separate package.

2016-10-11stdenv/stripHash: print to stdout, not to variableProfpatsch1-5/+4
`stripHash` documentation states that it prints out the stripped name to the stdout, but the function stored the value in `strippedName` instead. Basically all usages did something like `$(stripHash $foo | echo $strippedName)` which is just braindamaged. Fixed the implementation and all invocations.

2016-10-02mkDerivation: add overrideAttrs functionAneesh Agrawal1-0/+61
This is similar to `overrideDerivation`, but overrides the arguments to `mkDerivation` instead of the underlying `derivation` call. Also update `makeOverridable` so that uses of `overrideAttrs` can be followed by `override` and `overrideDerivation`, i.e. they can be mix-and-matched.

2016-09-03Merge commit 'adaee73' from staging into masterTuomas Tynkkynen1-1/+1
This one was already merged into release-16.09, so let's not have the stable branch is ahead of master and confuse things. In addition to that, currently we have an odd situation that master has less things actually finished building than in staging. Conflicts: pkgs/data/documentation/man-pages/default.nix

2016-08-31Fix #4210: Remove builderDefsDomen Kožar1-14/+0
This was one of the ways to build packages, we are trying hard to minimize different ways so it's easier for newcomers to learn only one way. This also: - removes texLive (old), fixes #14807 - removed upstream-updater, if that code is still used it should be in separate repo - changes a few packages like gitit/mit-scheme to use new texlive
