How to regenerate hackage-packages.nix?

cdepillabout · March 25, 2020, 2:11pm

hackage-packages.nix is updated automatically about once a day or so.

We almost never update it by hand in the normal course of development.

You can see the automatic updates on PRs like the following:

github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs

Update Haskell package set to LTS 15.5 (plus other fixes)
