ruby nix overlay: 1) ruby script to dump rubyforge to .nix files (50.000 packages) So no, I'm not going to ask to include them to nixpkgs. 2) nix code which generates nix derivations on the fly from the dump. 3) a bash script you can source to augment your shell env so that all packages are

2013-08-11 Thread Mathijs Kwik
