[Nix-dev] Make wrappers be binaries instead of shell scripts?

postgis was added by me many years ago, I guess nobody since then looked at it. That time it was neccessary to prepare a databse before you were able to use postgis - to simplify I added helper scripts like this: pg_db_postgis_enable Things might have changed a lot. Rebuilding OS works fine.

Some time ago I had an idea for a ‘wrapper interpreter’, seems like execline might be similar. No reason we can’t have such a thing. On Nov 18, 2014, at 9:02 AM, Thomas Tuegel ttue...@gmail.com wrote: On Tue, Nov 18, 2014 at 7:32 AM, Wout Mertens wout.mert...@gmail.com wrote: Hi all, I'm
