Erik Arvstedt fa01100f40 python-docs: fix override examples
Use example package `zerobin` instead of `bepasty-server` which
is no longer part of python-packages.
This fixes the examples for current nixpkgs versions.

Erik Arvstedt 42e3727aa2 python docs: improve override example
1. Use the same approach like in the overlay example:
   Override `python` instead of `pythonPackages` so that
   `python.pkgs` refers to the new package set like `pythonPackages`.

   This also fixes a bug in the original example where
   `pkgs.fetchgit` was not in scope.

   Add an extra example to illustrate how to override just a
   package set.

2. Fix mix-up between `super` and `self` in the explanation text.
   Also, simplify the explanation.

toonn ae1e304a60 haskell docs: add info about hoogle's --local flag to section 9.5.2.3
Relevant section: 9.5.2.3. How to install a compiler with libraries, hoogle and documentation indexes

Since version 5 `hoogle server`s --local flag solves the problem with links from
`http:` to `file:` URIs:

    hoogle server --local -p 8080

Bas van Dijk bf6d796a27 haskell: allow overriding all package sets at once
Setting haskell.packageOverrides like so:

  haskell = super.haskell // {
    packageOverrides = self: super: {
      my-package = ...;
      my-other-package = ...;
    };
  };

causes all compiler-specific package sets to be overridden with those
overrides.

Austin Seipp dc40fca23f nixpkgs: remove ancient 'ecj' package
Nobody has stepped up to keep maintaining this and it's several
years old, and the last strict Java 7 dependency, as it won't work
with newer versions without an update.

perlPackages.DBI: Stub out dbd_postamble for cross-compilation. 2018-02-28 15:01:32 -05:00
Shea Levy 306d5cdf03
perlPackages: Add cross-compilation support.
This involved:

* Installing miniperl as $dev/bin/perl
* Setting miniperl to take INC from
  lib/perl5/{site_perl/,}cross_perl/${version} as well as
  lib/perl5/{site_perl/,}/${version}/${runtimeArch}, in that
  order. miniperl taking from runtimeArch is not really correct, but
  it works in some pure-perl cases (e.g. Config.pm) and can be
  overridden with the cross_perl variant.
* Installing perl-cross's stubs into
  $dev/lib/perl5/cross_perl/${version}
* Patching MakeMaker.pm to gracefully degrade (very slightly) if B.pm
  can't be loaded, which it can't in cross-compilation.
* Passing the right build-time and runtime perls to Makefile.PL
