Okay. In the meantime, 'mailutils' fails to build because of this problem: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- CCLD libmu_scm.la GEN mailutils.scm GEN guile-procedures.txt /nix/store/777jas1fcgc38hmvq6lq1sa9k67f10kl-coreutils-8.20/bin/env: perl: N= o such file or directory WARNING: `makeinfo' is missing on your system. You should only need it if you modified a `.texi' or `.texinfo' file, or any other file indirectly affecting the aspect of the manual. The spurious call might also be the consequence of using a buggy `make' (AIX, DU, IRIX). You might want to install the `Texinfo' package or the `GNU make' package. Grab either from any GNU archive site. make[3]: *** [guile-procedures.txt] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory `/tmp/nix-build-mailutils-2.2.drv-0/mailutils-2.= 2/libmu_scm' make[2]: *** [all] Error 2 make[2]: Leaving directory `/tmp/nix-build-mailutils-2.2.drv-0/mailutils-2.= 2/libmu_scm' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/tmp/nix-build-mailutils-2.2.drv-0/mailutils-2.= 2' make: *** [all] Error 2 phase `build' failed after 88 seconds builder for `/nix/store/39031b9d3w6j9iwhsnxjfd0lhga1z61g-mailutils-2.2.drv'= failed with exit code 1 error: build failed: build of `/nix/store/39031b9d3w6j9iwhsnxjfd0lhga1z61g-= mailutils-2.2.drv' failed --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- I don't care that much, but that's how the problem came to my attention.
