[Nix-dev] [PATCH 0/3] *** SUBJECT HERE ***

[Marc Weber]

These patches replace deepOverride by pkgsFunDeepOverride
I didn't try to remove all makeOverridable calls because they don't hurt as
much as , ...} ?

I also added a corresponding wiki article:
http://wiki.nixos.org/wiki/Escape_from_dependency_hell which refers to the
thread causing this patch series


Marc Weber (3):
  add pkgsFunDeepOverride as proposed on the mailinglist.     first
    step towards removing deepOverride
  removing deepOverride. The replacement pkgsFunDeepOverride doesn't
    suffer from     - maybe overriding args which are named the same
    way by accident     - because it forced adding , ...) to some
    packages       which "weakens the precision of the function
    interface definitios"
  removing , ... }. which were introduced in commits also adding    
    deepOverride usages. Keeping makeOverridable usages because I don't
    know     exactly which one can be removed.
