I'm trying to figure out how to navigate the sources to determine where wrapProgram, makeWrapper are populated. I can see in github the shell script, and that pkgs.makeWrapper copies to setup-hook, but can't find who calls makeSetupHook to trigger that.

Is there a fast way to figure this out without grepping the repo directly?

grep, tbh… or something like builtins.unsafeGetAttrPos "makeWrapper" pkgs

nonetheless. https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/821f1a2ebab0f13d6d65170d6bd7d2b3a182efdb/pkgs/top-level/all-packages.nix#L728

I'm just a bystander, but: Awesome!!! Thank you so much for this work.

For anyone following along, I believe that this can be tested from the comfort of your couch by:

nix-build -I nixpkgs=https://github.com/Gskartwii/nixpkgs/archive/bootstrap-x86_64-linux.tar.gz "<nixpkgs>" -A make-minimal-bootstrap-sources
nix-build -I nixpkgs=https://github.com/Gskartwii/nixpkgs/archive/bootstrap-x86_64-linux.tar.gz "<nixpkgs>" -A minimal-bootstrap.test

I am doing this now (and expect no problems). There was one quickly fixed issue in the beginning, I got a hash mismatch for nyacc, probably because I had already tested an earlier version? (I resolved this by appending a do-nothing question mark to the nyacc URL, prompting a redownload, for which the hash successfully validated. But I don't fully understand the root cause of this issue. On a machine with a fresh cache, this issue did not arise.)

How hard would it be to drop pkgs/stdenv/linux/bootstrap-files (for x86_64)?
