2003-05-26	* Some refactoring.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-4/+4

2003-05-25	* Prebuilt package sharing. We allow transparent binary deployment by	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+3
	sharing package directories (i.e., the result of building a Nix descriptor). `nix-pull-prebuilts' obtains a list of all known prebuilts by consulting the paths and URLs specified in $prefix/etc/nix/prebuilts.conf. The mappings ($pkghash, $prebuilthash) and ($prebuilthash, $location) are registered with Nix so that it can use the prebuilt with hash $prebuilthash when installing a package with hash $pkghash by downloading and unpacking $location. `nix-push-prebuilts' creates prebuilts for all packages for which no prebuilt is known to exist. It can then optionally upload these to the network through rsync. `nix-[pull\|push]-prebuilts' just provide a policy. Nix provides the mechanism through the `nix [export\|regprebuilt\|regurl]' commands.
2003-04-09	* We no longer use nix-populate standalone, rather we use it as a	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+1
	build action for `system' packages (like system.fix) that have dependencies on all packages we want to activate. So the command sequence to switch to a new activation configuration of the system would be: $ fix -i .../fixdescriptors/system.fix ... system.fix -> 89cf4713b37cc66989304abeb9ea189f $ nix-switch 89cf4713b37cc66989304abeb9ea189f * A nix-profile.sh script that can be included in .bashrc.
2003-04-08	* `Fix' is a high-level descriptor instantiator for Nix. It replaces	Eelco Dolstra	1	-2/+6
	nix-instantiate.
2003-04-06	* Better installation: make directories, create database.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+7
	* Fixed the register script.
2003-04-04	* Autoconf / Automake configuration and building.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+5
