Thanks for this! libreoffice probably isn't the easiest package to maintain :) > There are two caveats though: > > - Due to help being translated to so many packages total size when unpacked > is 2.1G (help is 1.4G). Any objections for making help optional? Do we keep English help? And an option to install all others? I don't think we need more fine grained selections. This might be a nice target for multiple-outputs though. That way, the core (with english help) is shared, meaning people who select the all-languages option won't need to build everything from scratch if hydra provides both outputs. > > - libreoffice has quite some external dependencies and the way we build > them now is messy (we just fetch all of them inside and run make), there is > space for improvements > > Domen > _______________________________________________ > nix-dev mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.science.uu.nl/mailman/listinfo/nix-dev And just curious... Why upgrade to 4.0, while 4.1 is out? I would expect skipping a version would save some work, but maybe going step-by-step it's easier to follow dependency/build-system changes. _______________________________________________ nix-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.science.uu.nl/mailman/listinfo/nix-dev
