History

Lluís Batlle i Rossell 21dd114f82 Revert "Making nixos keep a ref to its stdenv" This reverts commit `d170c98d13`. niksnut argues that we need smaller system closures, not bigger. So users facing the trouble of getting gcc rebuilds after nix-collect-garbage for any minimal nixos configuration change should use other means of not losing the stdenv output. One way is to keep one somewhere: nix-build -A stdenv -o stdenv '<nixpkgs>'. Another may be to use nix.conf options like gc-keep-outputs, gc-keep-derivations or env-keep-derivations.		2015-05-09 21:11:49 +00:00
