And we should not advertise that, because this would lead to packages which are not patched, under the rules of the future security-update work. So whatever you think this is simpler or not, this is incorrect, I guess we could nullify these functions in the latest layer, preventing callPackage to ever be used through `self`. -- Nicolas Pierron http://www.linkedin.com/in/nicolasbpierron - http://nbp.name/ _______________________________________________ nix-dev mailing list nix-dev@lists.science.uu.nl http://lists.science.uu.nl/mailman/listinfo/nix-dev
