Takes 1 arguments
s
Split the string s into a package name and version. The package
name is everything up to but not including the first dash not followed
by a letter, and the version is everything following that dash. The
result is returned in a set { name, version }
. Thus,
builtins.parseDrvName "nix-0.12pre12876"
returns { name = "nix"; version = "0.12pre12876"; }
.
This function is not defined in a .nix file. It is likely a builtins function or an alias of a builtins function. builtins functions are predefined functions provided by Nix.
