Caching path info is generally useful. For instance, it speeds up "nix
path-info -rS /run/current-system" (i.e. showing the closure sizes of
all paths in the closure of the current system) from 5.6s to 0.15s.
This also eliminates some APIs like Store::queryDeriver() and
Store::queryReferences().
"verify-store" is now simply an "--all" flag to "nix verify". This
flag can be used for any other store path command as well (e.g. "nix
path-info", "nix copy-sigs", ...).
For convenience, you can now say
$ nix-env -f channel:nixos-16.03 -iA hello
instead of
$ nix-env -f https://nixos.org/channels/nixos-16.03/nixexprs.tar.xz -iA hello
Similarly,
$ nix-shell -I channel:nixpkgs-unstable -p hello
$ nix-build channel:nixos-15.09 -A hello
Abstracting over the NixOS/Nixpkgs channels location also allows us to
use a more efficient transport (e.g. Git) in the future.
Thus, -I / $NIX_PATH entries are now downloaded only when they are
needed for evaluation. An error to download an entry is a non-fatal
warning (just like non-existant paths).
This does change the semantics of builtins.nixPath, which now returns
the original, rather than resulting path. E.g., before we had
[ { path = "/nix/store/hgm3yxf1lrrwa3z14zpqaj5p9vs0qklk-nixexprs.tar.xz"; prefix = "nixpkgs"; } ... ]
but now
[ { path = "https://nixos.org/channels/nixos-16.03/nixexprs.tar.xz"; prefix = "nixpkgs"; } ... ]
Fixes#792.
Just wasted a couple hours chasing shadows because the nix store got
corrupted and there was no indication of that anywhere.
Since an install is one-time only, might as well verify. Optimization
showed that the copied files aren't read-only; fixed that as well.
Also, use /bin/sh since there's a good chance that this script will be
run on systems without /bin/bash
This specifies the number of distinct signatures required to consider
each path "trusted".
Also renamed ‘--no-sigs’ to ‘--no-trust’ for the flag that disables
verifying whether a path is trusted (since a path can also be trusted
if it has no signatures, but was built locally).
* exwm-workspace.el (exwm-workspace--on-focus-in, exwm-workspace--init):
Handle unexpected frame switch in `focus-in-hook'.
* exwm-floating.el (exwm-floating--set-floating): If the absolute position
is (0, 0) then the relative position is also the same.
These are content-addressed paths or outputs of locally performed
builds. They are trusted even if they don't have signatures, so "nix
verify-paths" won't complain about them.
Typical usage is to check local paths using the signatures from a
binary cache:
$ nix verify-paths -r /run/current-system -s https://cache.nixos.org
path ‘/nix/store/c1k4zqfb74wba5sn4yflb044gvap0x6k-nixos-system-mandark-16.03.git.fc2d7a5M’ is untrusted
...
checked 844 paths, 119 untrusted
