Among other things, this will allow *2nix tools to output plain data while still being composable with the traditional callPackage/.override interfaces.

/* This function composes the Nix Packages collection. It:
|
|
|
|
1. Applies the final stage to the given `config` if it is a function
|
|
|
|
2. Infers an appropriate `platform` based on the `system` if none is
|
|
provided
|
|
|
|
3. Defaults to no non-standard config and no cross-compilation target
|
|
|
|
4. Uses the above to infer the default standard environment's (stdenv's)
|
|
stages if no stdenv's are provided
|
|
|
|
5. Folds the stages to yield the final fully booted package set for the
|
|
chosen stdenv
|
|
|
|
Use `impure.nix` to also infer the `system` based on the one on which
|
|
evaluation is taking place, and the configuration from environment variables
|
|
or dot-files. */
