2017-11-29 Fix "Unexpected EOF reading a line" errorLinus Heckemann1-2/+2
propagated-user-env-packages files in nixpkgs aren't all terminated by newlines, as buildenv expected. Now it does not require a terminating newline; note that this introduces a behaviour change: propagated user env packages may now be spread across multiple lines. However, nix 1.11.x still expects them to be on a single line so this shouldn't be used in nixpkgs for now.
2017-09-21 Improve error message for conflicting prioritiesMatthieu Coudron1-3/+4
I find the error message 'nix-env --set-flag priority NUMBER PKGNAME' not as helpful as it could be : - doesn't share the current priorities - doesn't say that the command must be run on the already installed PKGNAME (which is confusing the first time) - the doc needs careful reading: "If there are multiple derivations matching a name in args that have the same name (e.g., gcc-3.3.6 and gcc-4.1.1), then the derivation with the highest priority is used." if one stops reading there, he is screwed. Salvation comes with reading "A derivation can define a priority by declaring the meta.priority attribute. This attribute should be a number, with a higher value denoting a lower priority. The default priority is 0." To sum it up, lower number wins. I tried to convey this idea in the message too.
