A modern, delicious implementation of the Nix package manager, focused on correctness, usability, and growth — and committed to doing right by its community

Fixes:
- Identifiers starting with _ are prohibited
- Some driveby header dependency cleaning which wound up with doing some
extra fixups.
- Fucking C style casts, man. C++ made these 1000% worse by letting you
also do memory corruption with them with references.
- Remove casts to Expr * where ExprBlackHole is an incomplete type by
introducing an explicitly-cast eBlackHoleAddr as Expr *.
- An incredibly illegal cast of the text bytes of the StorePath hash
into a size_t directly. You can't DO THAT.
Replaced with actually parsing the hash so we get 100% of the bits
being entropy, then memcpying the start of the hash. If this shows
up in a profile we should just make the hash parser faster with a
lookup table or something sensible like that.
- This horrendous bit of UB which I thankfully slapped a deprecation
warning on, built, and it didn't trigger anywhere so it was dead
code and I just deleted it. But holy crap you *cannot* do that.
inline void mkString(const Symbol & s)
{
mkString(((const std::string &) s).c_str());
}
- Some wrong lints. Lots of wrong macro lints, one wrong
suspicious-sizeof lint triggered by the template being instantiated
with only pointers, but the calculation being correct for both
pointers and not-pointers.
- Exceptions in destructors strike again. I tried to catch the
exceptions that might actually happen rather than all the exceptions
imaginable. We can let the runtime hard-kill it on other exceptions
imo.

Lix
Lix is an implementation of Nix, a powerful package management system for Linux and other Unix systems that makes package management reliable and reproducible.
Read more about us at https://lix.systems.
Installation
On Linux and macOS the easiest way to install Lix is to run the following shell command (as a user other than root):
$ curl -sSf -L https://install.lix.systems/lix | sh -s -- install
For systems that already have a Nix implementation installed, such as NixOS systems, read our install page
Building And Developing
See our Hacking guide in our manual for instruction on how to to set up a development environment and build Lix from source.
