New Services
Backward Incompatibilities
-
pkgs.ghcnow refers topkgs.targetPackages.haskellPackages.ghc. This only makes a difference if you are cross-compiling and will ensure thatpkgs.ghcalways runs on the host platform and compiles for the target platform (similar topkgs.gccfor example).haskellPackages.ghcstill behaves as before, running on the build platform and compiling for the host platform (similar tostdenv.cc). This means you don't have to adjust your derivations if you usehaskellPackages.callPackage, but when usingpkgs.callPackageand takingghcas an input, you should now usebuildPackages.ghcinstead to ensure cross compilation keeps working (or switch tohaskellPackages.callPackage). -
pkgs.emacsPackages.orgPackagesis removed because org elpa is deprecated. The packages in the top level ofpkgs.emacsPackages, such as org and org-contrib, refer to the ones inpkgs.emacsPackages.elpaPackagesandpkgs.emacsPackages.nongnuPackageswhere the new versions will release. -
The
wafHookhook now honorsNIX_BUILD_CORESwhenenableParallelBuildingis not set explicitly. Packages can restore the old behaviour by settingenableParallelBuilding=false.
