This adds a warning to the top of each “boot” package that reads: Note: this package is used for bootstrapping fetchurl, and thus cannot use fetchpatch! All mutable patches (generated by GitHub or cgit) that are needed here should be included directly in Nixpkgs as files. This makes it clear to maintainer that they may need to treat this package a little differently than others. Importantly, we can’t use fetchpatch here due to using <nix/fetchurl.nix>. To avoid having stale hashes, we need to include patches that are subject to changing overtime (for instance, gitweb’s patches contain a version number at the bottom).

'' XZ Utils is free general-purpose data compression software with high
|
|
compression ratio. XZ Utils were written for POSIX-like systems,
|
|
but also work on some not-so-POSIX systems. XZ Utils are the
|
|
successor to LZMA Utils.
|
|
|
|
The core of the XZ Utils compression code is based on LZMA SDK, but
|
|
it has been modified quite a lot to be suitable for XZ Utils. The
|
|
primary compression algorithm is currently LZMA2, which is used
|
|
inside the .xz container format. With typical files, XZ Utils
|
|
create 30 % smaller output than gzip and 15 % smaller output than
|
|
bzip2.
