Cygwin sqlite3 is patched to call SetDllDirectory("/usr/bin") on init, which affects the current process and is inherited by child processes. It causes DLLs to be loaded from /usr/bin/ before $PATH, which breaks all sorts of things. A typical failures would be header/lib version mismatches (e.g. openssl when running checkPhase on openssh). We'll just set it back to the default value. Note that this is a problem with the cygwin version of sqlite3 (currently 3.18.0). nixpkgs doesn't have the problematic patch. |

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.
