Hi Marc, Thanks for the attr package, and the tip about where nix gets the URLs from.
It's now choking on gtk+-2.12.10.tar.bz2, but it actually starts downloading, and then quits... another upstream problem, or perhaps my work's internet connection, but I think you've given me enough to blunder through a solution. Little background: I'm mainly testing out nix on my work machine, and as it only has firefox2 (it's on Fedora 8), I thought I'd try pulling in firefox 3 via nix like the linux.com tutorial. attr happened to be one of the (many) dependencies. Also, I'm curious how nix repositories are to setting up, and nix might be useful for us (we're stuck on RHEL4 in production, so this might be an easy way to get updated packages, as well as manage our own software at the same time.) -Matt _______________________________________________ nix-dev mailing list [email protected] https://mail.cs.uu.nl/mailman/listinfo/nix-dev
