This release adds support for building with cmake!
So switch to that eagerly instead of fighting with bam.
(if nothing else cmake is the devil we know...)
Also:
* fixup 'DATA_DIR' so programs can find resources
(without need for wrappers)
* install readme+license as previously done ("docs")
* don't install tools since not built or installed by default
* esp since doesn't appear to have non-adhoc method for installation
* other distros don't seem to include
(cherry picked from commit 18258bae34)
Fixes CVE-2018-18541.
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 https://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-18.09 for the latest
release and nixos-unstable for the latest successful build of master:
% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-18.09
For pull-requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master.
NixOS Linux distribution source code is located inside
nixos/ folder.
