Re: [Nix-dev] fixing node.js on Darwin

Unfortunately, it fails because cyrus-sasl is broken on Mac OS X. For me, it looked a bit weird that cyrus-sasl was in the closure anyway, but apparently fetchsvn is used to download the V8 source code (a dependency of Node.js). Subversion has an optional feature to use cyrus-sasl, but it's disabled by default. However, subversion uses apr-util, which has an optional feature to use openldap, which is enabled by default. OpenLDAP has a dependency on cyrus-sasl and hence it's still in the closure. Some days ago I was stucked with cyrus-sasl, then I started a branch to fix the build for osx[1]. I saw in hydra, the build of cyrus-sasl in osx ever fails[2]. Looking to the git log of cyrus-sasl I saw some commits[3][4] which fixes the build on osx and I backported the patch for the current release, and other fixes trying to build it. For now the nix expression is ugly and don't distinguishes if stdenv.isDarwin, but it builds. I can improve it if anyone is interested. This is the diff[5]. Cheers, Eduard Carreras I don't know if openldap should be enabled by default in the apr-util package. If I disable it, the fetchsvn function works fine. For me, it looks like it's better to disable it by default. What's your opinion on this?

Sometimes there are options, sometimes you have to patch it. Making a patch[1] to xfce4-panel works fine, but seems ugly... I don't know why $XDG_DATA_DIRS is empty. Can we do a wrapper in sh that export this variable and then run xfce4-panel? Maybe I'm saying a lot the nonsense...

The problem is the path that the panel uses to search for plugins. I'm quite sure it's compile-time configurable, but that would mean we need to recompile it whenever (re)installing plugins, which would be very uncomfortable. The typical solution would be a wrapper that sets the path (like for firefox), perhaps via an environment variable. I don't know if xfce4-panel supports that, but it shouldn't be too difficult to patch it. According to [gtk] it might work by setting GTK_PATH. Ok, I'll take a look to this and see how this go on. Even better, maybe it would suffice to modify the desktop file entry X-XFCE-Module-Path or X-XFCE-Exec (see [xfce]). I've seen that X-XFCE-Module is used for internal plugins like windowmenu plugin and X-XFCE-Exec is for external. The xfce4-cpufreq-plugin.desktop has a X-XFCE-Exec=/nix/store/gas9rjahhdxkksv7k3fbq4kwgp17xrvf-xfce4-cpufreq-plugin-1.0.0/libexec/xfce4/panel-plugins/xfce4-cpufreq-plugin. Thanks for your comments.

[Nix-dev] Adding xfce4 panel plugins

My ~/.nix-profile .nix-profile/libexec └── xfce4 └── panel-plugins └── xfce4-cpufreq-plugin .nix-profile/share/xfce4 └── panel-plugins └── xfce4-cpufreq-plugin.desktop The plugin seems that is in the right place, but xfce4 doesn't show it.
