The goal is to support libeditline AND libreadline and let the user decide at compile time which one to use. Add a compile time option to use libreadline instead of libeditline. If compiled against libreadline completion functionality is lost because of a incompatibility between libeditlines and libreadlines completion function. Completion with libreadline is possible and can be added later. To use libreadline instead of libeditline the environment variables 'EDITLINE_LIBS' and 'EDITLINE_CFLAGS' have to been set during the ./configure step. Example: EDITLINE_LIBS="/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libhistory.so /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libreadline.so" EDITLINE_CFLAGS="-DREADLINE" The reason for this change is that for example on Debian already three different editline libraries exist but none of those is compatible the flavor used by nix. My hope is that with this change it would be easier to port nix to systems that have already libreadline available. |

Nix, the purely functional package manager
Nix is a new take on package management that is fairly unique. Because of its purity aspects, a lot of issues found in traditional package managers don't appear with Nix.
To find out more about the tool, usage and installation instructions, please read the manual, which is available on the Nix website at http://nixos.org/nix/manual.
