The idea is to have an almost-automatic conversion from QuickLisp, the
definitive Common Lisp package repository, to Nix. The benefit over just
using lispPackages.quicklisp is automatic installation of non-Lisp
dependencies from NixPkgs (and integration with Nix package management).
The benefit over lispPackages for normal Lisp packages is packaging just
a snapshot of QuickLisp which is known to be tested for version
compatibility between libraries.
There are some packages in lispPackages that are not from QuickLisp (for
example, the installable wrapper of QuickLisp itself). My hope is to
replace the rest with the expressions converted from QuickLisp.
Note that the current commit is a mere addition.
Now works with newer version of vim youcompleteme plugin.
Details:
- The OS X patch is no longer necessary as that code was removed upstream.
- It seems to want LLVM version 4 now.
- It annoyingly wants to symlink libclang.4 to libclang.4.0; nix already
did this.
All 20 tests did fail because no gpg binary was found. With gnupg1 as
build input they never finish. Deactivating them might be the best
option for now (and it improves the current situation since they never
actually succeeded anyway -> build was failing, I noticed this while
running nox-review for #24390).
Additional tools:
- gpg-key2latex
- gpgdir
- gpgwrap
This module is really hacky and the dependencies are very messy... :o
However I tried my best at testing all 19 individual tools and they
should (hopefully) all work now (apart from sendmail which can be
provided by multiple packages) :)
The code is very redundant (sorry) but imho it's easier to read and
maintain it that way.
TODO: There are some additional manual pages that could be included (I'm
too exhausted for that atm...). And there might be a lot of stuff that
could be improved in the future.
