Motivation for this change

I talked to someone about NixOS at the 36C3 and we discovered that this package is missing.

It is a FAQ about anarchism that was originally packaged for debian and can be found in many debian derivations and AUR. https://repology.org/project/anarchism/versions

Ever wanted to install anarchism on your system? Now you can also on NixOS!

It includes HTML and Markdown files, an icon and desktop file. So you can open it in your browser from the menu.

Things done
  • Tested using sandboxing (nix.useSandbox on NixOS, or option sandbox in nix.conf on non-NixOS linux)
  • Built on platform(s)
    • NixOS
    • macOS
    • other Linux distributions
  • Tested via one or more NixOS test(s) if existing and applicable for the change (look inside nixos/tests)
  • Tested compilation of all pkgs that depend on this change using nix-shell -p nixpkgs-review --run "nixpkgs-review wip"
  • Tested execution of all binary files (usually in ./result/bin/)
  • Determined the impact on package closure size (by running nix path-info -S before and after)
  • Ensured that relevant documentation is up to date
  • Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.

I have always found it strange that Debian packages this. Can't someone just browse the website?

(Just wondering where the boundary is of packaging websites that are under a free license. If this does fit nixpkgs, the C++ Annotations would be another good candidate.)

Good point. It's probably intended for offline use. When the system crashes (and the internet is down) you might remember that anarchism can help to organize groups and want to study it.

Same can apply for the NixOS manual or man pages. I actually never used the installed manual.

If this does fit nixpkgs, the C++ Annotations would be another good candidate.

I don't think we have rules for that, so it's a topic that can be discussed. It falls under the category documentation. I think if it's useful and people would use it, just package it.

It seems to exists only as debian package (and derivations): https://repology.org/project/c%2B%2B-annotations/versions
