`nix-rebuild switch` has been kind of flakey for me since I switched to
GDM (which was also when I switched 
to 17.03). A reboot is usually needed for my system to get X11 back.

I believe stdenv also sets the CC and CXX environment variables to the 
preferred C compiler, which could be useful to avoid additional nix code.

[Nix-dev] printing on nix

[Nawal Husnoo]

Hi,

I've got the default.nix below, and I run it using nix-shell. I opened
firefox, and went to 127.0.0.1:631 and added a printer, and selected the
ppd file from /opt/share/ppd/canonmp250.ppd.

Unfortunately, when I try to print a test page I get the error message:

Idle - "File
"/nix/store/wy6c4mlp6zhjj4j3cjwrhwfi4ba9bxab-cups-progs/lib/cups/filter/pstocanonij"
not available: No such file or directory"

The file lives at /opt/lib/cups/filter/pstocanonij.

How do I override cups path in nix?

thanks,

Nawal.

Re: [Nix-dev] Trying to install the SailfishOS SDK

Is the installer only a way to avoid packaging the SDK for one thousand
distros? If so we can build the SDK from sources and avoid the
installer at all.

> I suspect the secret sauce will be, unsurprisingly, in the AUR.

The AUR solution calls the installer with a --script option, passing
enough javascript to make the setup fully automated. I hadn't time to
try if this works in a headless environment or not.

Unless the SDK has binary only and unfree components I'd prefer a
package that can build it from source, but I don't know if we have a
guideline about wrapping binary releases.
For instance, is libreoffice compiled from source by hydra or just
wrapped?

Thank you so much ! I didn't think of steam-run, now I can give it a
whirl!

  Disable use of virtual hosting in aws-sdk-cpp

Recently aws-sdk-cpp quietly switched to using S3 virtual host URIs
(https://github.com/aws/aws-sdk-cpp/commit/69d9c53882), i.e. it sends
requests to http://..s3.amazonaws.com rather than
http://.s3.amazonaws.com/. However this interacts
badly with curl connection reuse. For example, if we do the following:

1) Check whether a bucket exists using GetBucketLocation.
2) If it doesn't, create it using CreateBucket.
3) Do operations on the bucket.

then 3) will fail for a minute or so with a NoSuchBucket exception,
presumably because the server being hit is a fallback for cases when
buckets don't exist.

Disabling the use of virtual hosts ensures that 3) succeeds
immediately. (I don't know what S3's consistency guarantees are for
bucket creation, but in practice buckets appear to be available
immediately.)

Both of these could be handled client-side. Instead of having a per-user
roots directory in /nix/var/nix, we would have some truly per-user
directory (in /home/user/.var/nix/ or something) where roots are
put. We'd also have some kind of state tracking for what roots we've
told the nix-daemon about. Then when we one runs nix-store --gc, it
would:

1. Clean up broken links in .var/nix/roots
2. Search for runtime roots as the current user (this, incidentally, is
a critical feature on its own; my systems run with an unprivileged
nix-daemon and hidepid=2, so the nix-daemon (as it should be) cannot
determine what programs other users are running)
3. Tell the nix-daemon to remove any roots that were previously
registered and are no longer present, excluding roots that are currently
runtime roots.

Unfortunately, this would mean that if a user runs a program out of the
store, without first contacting the daemon and registering a (temporary)
root, the store paths for that program could be GC'd out from under
it. But I think that makes sense, anyway - the runtime root stuff
inherently requires a lot of privileges for the nix-daemon, which are
impractical/inadvisable to grant it in containerized/multi-host setups.
Much better to move runtime root detection to be as local as possible.

This would be an optional mode of operation, of course, global runtime
roots are still helpful if you can get them.

Re: [Nix-dev] How to build a Haskell binding to a C++ library (OpenCV) on OS X

[Vincent Laporte]

Hi,

Notice that if you replace the two occurrences of ‘g++’ by ‘clang++’ in
the file ‘opencv/Setup.hs’, then ‘nix-build’ succeeds.

This issue might be reported upstream: they apparently need a configure
step to select the correct name of the C++ compiler.

The following patch also appears to make ‘nix-build’ work.

Regards,

[Nix-dev] displaymanager: gdm broken?

[Roland Koebler]

Hi,

if I chose gdm as display-manger in NixOS, gdm fails to show a
login-screen. Is this a known bug and is there a solution or
workaround?

Chosing slim or lightdm as display-manager works (but slim is *really*
user-unfriendly when using different sessions/windowmanagers, since
it shows the selected session as white text on nearly-white background
and does not tell you how to select which session to use).

Details:

- /etc/nixos/configuration.nix:

services.xserver.displayManager.gdm.enable = true;

- Then:

  # nixos-rebuild switch
  # systemctl restart display-manager.service

- Afterwards, nothing seems to happen; tty1..tty6 all show a text-login-

  macOS: Ugly hack to make the tests succeed

Sandboxes cannot be nested, so if Nix's build runs inside a sandbox,
it cannot use a sandbox itself. I don't see a clean way to detect
whether we're in a sandbox, so use a test-specific hack.

Have you tried adding opencv as a buildInput? Maybe something like:

`buildInputs = [ stdenv opencv3 ] ;`?

But I have no idea what `libraryPkgconfigDepends = [ opencv3 ];` is
supposed to be doing.___

Unfortunately, the release channel has been blocked for a while; I
failed to realize how much it is lagging behind the release branch.
Unless you wish to pull nix expressions directly from the release
branch, there's
not much else to do than wait for the channel to catch up. That is, the
updates are there, they are just not being disseminated, for reasons
unrelated to firefox specifically.

The default branch after installing NixOS:
# nix-channel --list
nixos https://nixos.org/channels/nixos-17.03

The package-search on http://nixos.org/nixos/packages.html also only shows
the outdated versions.

  hardware: add enableRedistributalFirmware

Due the recent inclusion of broadcom-bt-firmware in enableAllFirmware,
it was required to set `nixpkgs.config.allowUnfree` to obtain the full
list. To make this dependency more explicit an assertion is added and an
alternative option `enableRedistributalFirmware` is provided to only
obtain firmware with an license allowing redistribution.

[Nix-dev] firefox package questions

[Roland Koebler]

Hi,

I have recently installed NixOS on a PC and noticed some unexpected
things with Firefox on NixOS:

- Up to date versions:
  Currently, NixOS only contains outdated Firefox-versions (53.0.3, 52.1.2esr);
  there are newer official versions since about 1 week.
  How long does it usually take until the newest version gets packaged?

- Name:
  I installed firefox-esr, but the started Firefox called itself "Nightly".
  I searched the mailinglist, and it looks like it is called "Nightly"
  because it is built by NixOS/Hydra.
  I think this is irritating for most users; since the name probably
  cannot be changed to "Firefox", it would be nice if it would be
  mentioned e.g. in the Nix-manual (or maybe in the Firefox-About-Dialog?).

- Data choices:
  After starting Firefox, it tells me:
  "Nightly automatically sends some data to Mozilla so that we can

  When I click on "Choose What I Share", I get to the data-choices-
  preferences-dialog (Preferences -> Advanced -> Data Choices),
  but this dialog is empty.

  So, does the NixOS-Nightly-Firefox automatically send data?
  Is there a way to prevent this?
  And is this documented somewhere?

  I would like to install both firefox and firefox-esr and access both

  Would it be possible to e.g. add a "firefox-esr"-executable-symlink by
  firefox-esr, so that it works as follows?
  - $ firefox
starts the newest version if both firefox and firefox-esr are installed,
or the newest or the esr version if only one is installed
  - $ firefox-esr
always starts the esr-version

How would deleting indirect roots work? Keep in mind that currently
users can simply delete any result symlinks from nix-build with 'rm' or
any other file management tool to remove the root. That won't work
over NFS because such an indirect root could be created on a different
filesystem (e.g. any local fs) that the machine running nix-daemon can't
access to verify whether the symlink is still there.

Additionally there's the problem of paths being in use by running processes
on other machines being garbage collected under their feet.

Sharing is possible if you use a distributed file system that handle
consistency correctly, like GPFS, Lustre or similar.

We use Nix in shared model in production everyday in my organization.

It is not really an issue. It could be done the same way it is done
currently. The client does the GC management if configured in single
user mode, or does it through the daemon if configure in multi user mode.

The strong point here is that only ONE user should write to /nix :
- Yourself in single user mode
- The nix-daemon in multi user mode.

This is not the case currently.

I strongly support your idea.

The roots / profile implementation is currently hacky, not really
reliable, and potentially a security issue.

I've seen that mistake at least a few times already, e.g.
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/26209#issuecomment-305925562
It might perhaps seem counter-intuitive if one doesn't know nixpkgs well.
