callPackage is supposed to fill in all missing parameter from the enclosing scope; this explicit inherit ought to be unnecessary here.

The convention is to separate the version and name with a dash.
This is actually necessary to make nix-env -u work properly. http://nixos.org/nixpkgs/manual/#sec-package-naming

The file on the debian repo seperates name and version with a "_" , so i used it .
Thank you.

you could use meta = with stdenv.lib; here so you don't need the full qualified attributes anymore
|
Merged in e0878ce note I collapsed your commits in to one with the text "chase: init at xxx". I also fixed the hyphen in the name. Thank you! |
|
One other thing -- I had to rename your entry in maintainers.nix because it needs to match your github name. I did that in fa89f84. |
|
Hi graham, |
|
Oh, can you create a new pr with a fix? |
|
Ok fixed the hyphen issue and avoided fully qualified attribute names as you suggested |
|
well Graham Christensen already fixed it in the nixos repo directly ,
should work right now.

Motivation for this change
NixOs handles different versions of software contemporary installed on a NixOs installation.
Dispatching is done via symlinks.
"Chase" automatically resolves to the last target of a chain of symlinks avoiding looping.
I think its a valuable tool for any NixOs admin and is good company for "which".
Things done
Added chase under pkgs/tools/system/chase
Its empowers "which" that is installed in the same pkgs path
(nix.useSandbox on NixOS,
or option
build-use-sandboxinnix.confon non-NixOS)
