makeWrapper: Remove unused extraFlagsArray feature 
There is a bug in this feature: It allows extra arguments to leak in
from the environment. For example:

  $ export extraFlagsArray=date
  $ man ls

Note that you get the man page for date rather than for ls. This happens
because 'man' happens to use a wrapper (to add groff to its PATH).

An attempt to fix this was made in 5ae18574fc in PR #19328 for
issue #2537, but 1. That change didn't actually fix the problem because
it addressed makeWrapper's environment during the build process, not the
constructed wrapper script's environment after installation, and 2. That
change was apparently accidentally lost when merged with 7ff6eec5fd.

Rather than trying to fix the bug again, we remove the extraFlagsArray
feature, since it has never been used in the public repo in the ten
years it has been available.

wrapAclocal continues to use its own, separate flavor of extraFlagsArray
in a more limited context. The analogous bug there was fixed in
4d7d10da6b in 2011.

Nixpkgs is a collection of over 40,000 software packages that can be installed with the Nix package manager. It also implements NixOS, a purely-functional Linux distribution.

Manuals

  • NixOS Manual - how to install, configure, and maintain a purely-functional Linux distribution
  • Nixpkgs Manual - contributing to Nixpkgs and using programming-language-specific Nix expressions
  • Nix Package Manager Manual - how to write Nix expresssions (programs), and how to use Nix command line tools

Community

Other Project Repositories

The sources of all offical Nix-related projects are in the NixOS organization on GitHub. Here are some of the main ones:

Continuous Integration and Distribution

Nixpkgs and NixOS are built and tested by our continuous integration system, Hydra.

Artifacts successfully built with Hydra are published to cache at https://cache.nixos.org/. When successful build and test criteria are met, the Nixpkgs expressions are distributed via Nix channels. The channels are provided via a read-only mirror of the Nixpkgs repository called nixpkgs-channels.

Contributing

Nixpkgs is among the most active projects on GitHub. While thousands of open issues and pull requests might seem a lot at first, it helps consider it in the context of the scope of the project. Nixpkgs describes how to build over 40,000 pieces of software and implements a Linux distribution. The GitHub Insights page gives a sense of the project activity.

Community contributions are always welcome through GitHub Issues and Pull Requests. When pull requests are made, our tooling automation bot, OfBorg will perform various checks to help ensure expression quality.

The Nixpkgs maintainers are people who have assigned themselves to maintain specific individual packages. We encourage people who care about a package to assign themselves as a maintainer. When a pull request is made against a package, OfBorg will notify the appropriate maintainer(s). The Nixpkgs committers are people who have been given permission to merge.

Most contributions are based on and merged into these branches:

  • master is the main branch where all small contributions go
  • staging is branched from master, changes that have a big impact on Hydra builds go to this branch
  • staging-next is branched from staging and only fixes to stabilize and security fixes with a big impact on Hydra builds should be contributed to this branch. This branch is merged into master when deemed of sufficiently high quality

For more information about contributing to the project, please visit the contributing page.

Donations

The infrastructure for NixOS and related projects is maintained by a nonprofit organization, the NixOS Foundation. To ensure the continuity and expansion of the NixOS infrastructure, we are looking for donations to our organization.
