Looks great, thanks, I'll have to look into it.
I had forgotten about this feature, so yeah, it's a good idea! I'll be far away from the internet next week, so if you want to add it yourself (maybe...
I didn't know about "-b". It seems to be a great way to update the packages that doesn't fail when some can't be build. Its behavior seems to just ignore...
@vandenoever Correct me if I'm wrong, but "nix-env -b" not only does not compile, but also does not download, meaning it will only install if the derivations already are in...
@vandenoever That is not the behaviour I observe: ``` > nix-env -i gdb --dry-run (dry run; not doing anything) installing `gdb-7.8' these paths will be fetched (0.00 MiB download, 58.79...
`nix-env -i gdb -b` does absolutely nothing. Could you try to reproduce those results on your side?
@vandenoever my bad, gdb was a bad example. I still don't understand why `nix-env -i gdb --dry-run` is only about fetching, not building, and and `-b` won't work. Anyway, thanks...
Thanks for the issue! That would indeed be nice. The reason nox tries to compile those packages is because it has a fairly crude way to list the packages, as...
Thanks for pinging me ! I have to confess I'm not sure how to tackle this one. It is indeed a problem with `recurseIntoAttrset`: nox basically does two `nix-env -qa`...
