I applied the patch Gene wrote here: https://github.com/triton/nixpkgs/commit/06e146b2ce5eaaa54ebea061dd5797f89ae2c37c The tree after that commit is entirely based on gcc5. In order to do a test with gcc4.9, I reverted: https://github.com/triton/nixpkgs/commit/8ccc1f121f379f4d66ce0a66f581c49d25fb4e15#diff-d7222640d82ff920625e9311d05a0137 and then built two images, one entirely based on gcc4.9

Hi, I maintain the R packages in the NixOS Linux distribution [1]. A while ago, I attempted to update to version 3.1.1, but I ran into the following test suite failure: | Testing examples for package 'tools' | comparing 'tools-Ex.Rout' to 'tools-Ex.Rout.save' ... | 452c452 | < character(0) | --- | > [1] "Matrix" "nlme" "mgcv"

Hi, Does anyone here have experience running Tinc on NixOS? I'm trying to run Tinc on a NixOS machine, using the similar configuration i had for Ubuntu. My home subnet is 192.168.1.0/24 and my work is 10.16.0.0/24. However, unlike ubuntu, when I start tincd on nixos, and try to 'ifconfig $INTERFACE 192.168.1.10 netmask 255.255.255.0' in my tinc-up, I loose network access on the box

Hi, The recommended package matrix contains an empty file src/dummy.cpp which results in using g++ instead of gcc to link Matrix.so. What is the reason for that? Is there any difference between using g++ or gcc? (There are no other cpp files in the source) I asked the maintainers of the package (matrix-authors at r-project.org) 3 weeks ago but haven't received any answer. On my system (NixOS

Hi, I tried compiling the latest pre-release for R 3.3.3 for the NixOS Linux distribution [1], but the build fails during the "make check" phase because of the following 2 issues: 1) The "tools" test in "tests/Examples" requires network access, which it doesn't have in our build environment. Therefore, it fails as follows according to

You are jumping to conclusions. Nobody pays me a single cent to package R for Nix; I do that purely as a hobby. >> If no-one wants to make

I am trying to make Qemu agent work with libvirt thanks to https://github.com/NixOS/nixops/pull/922 with libvirt 4.1.0. I've been trying to make it work for quite some time but I still haven't the slightest idea of what is wrong, I keep seeing "Guest agent is not responding: QEMU guest agent is not connected" as the program I use (nixops) calls the libvirt python API. I

I have the following define... define puppet::module_dir { if $name { include puppet file { "${puppetdir}/modules/${name}": ensure => directory, mode => 0755, purge => true, recurse => true, } } } I call it like so: puppet::module_dir { "main" } puppet::module_dir

Hi all, I'm trying to understand why LLVM uses @rpath as the install name in its dynamic libraries on macOS. This complicates the process of linking against libLLVM from third-party tools and isn't nearly as common a practice on macOS as it is on Linux. I tried tracing through history on the LLVM repo and the main thing I could find was a commit from ages ago saying that the libraries are

Is there an easy (and secure) way to search your database when you don''t know the number of parameters ahead of time? I can see doing it by concatenating together an sql query, but hopefully rails provides a more elegant way to do this with ActiveRecord without making a ginormous switch statement? For example, lets say my search form has 4 different input boxes. I only want the query

Hello all, Some time before Christmas, a project was started. The task was to enhance an existing LiveCD solution with User-mode Linux. A number of requirements was stated, where the greatest challenge was to fit 10 virtual routers within an old no-name PC with only 256MB Ram. And the solution must still be run from a LiveCD. Thanks to Xen, the task was possible to complete. -But, what does it

Hi We have an mailserver running RedHat Linux 9.0 with UW-IMAP (imap-2001a- 18.progeny.1.src.rpm), we have user mailboxes in /var/spool/mail/username using the default mbox storage method. Some users have home directories and some dont. They only connect through the POP3 server, not IMAP. We are now migrating both hardware and software to an new server running RHEL 4, i have copied all

Hi! I''m trying to insert binary data into a PostgreSQL database where the field is of type ''bytea''. This works fine if a do Base64 encoding but I just want to do character escaping.

Hello, Is there some things removed from the kernel.org kernels before the get into xen-unstable? I was just about to compile a new dom0 kernel, and couldn''t find the option for Buslogic SCSI driver i xen-unstable kernel synced earlier this morning. I find this a bit strange, as I know the option is there in kernel.org''s 2.6.16-rc2. The config option was somehow lost in 2.6.15

Hi, I''m working on a web app that allows users to submit links to external sites. I''m curious if there are any special security considerations I should take aside from escaping the user input with h( )? Is it safe to directly link_to h(user_inputted_url), h(user_inputted_url) or could that be exploited in a way that I''m not thinking of. Thanks. -------------- next

What is the purpose of supporting this "copy directories around" sort of build strategy anyway? At the end of the day, the way these packages get installed is via system package managers is independently, each project finding its dependencies with the standard prefix path. When I compile from source it's always like this: $ cd llvm-6.0.0rc2.src/ $ mkdir build $ cd build $ cmake ..
