I think we should have something in the manual people can point to
about this, to avoid rehashing it over and over in PRs. "stdenv.lib"
makes it look like lib is part of stdenv, which it isn't, and makes it
even more confusing as a newcomer to figure out what stdenv is (and
isn't).
androidenv did not previously write license files, which caused certain
gradle-based Android tools to fail. Restructure androidenv's list of
Android packages into a single repo.json file to prevent duplication
and enable us to extract the EULA texts, which we then hash with
builtins.hashString to produce the license files that Android gradle
tools look for.
Remove includeDocs and lldbVersions, as these have been removed
from the Android package repositories.
Improve documentation and examples.
The last snapshot was 4 months ago (2020-08-19). I also found that I needed newer definitions when I was trying to fix the R arrow package.
This update required a couple of manual changes:
1. Removing a few deleted packages from default.nix
2. Renaming the "assert" package to "r_assert" in generate-r-packages.R because "assert" is a keyword in Nix
I used the existing anchors generated by Docbook, so the anchor part
should be a no-op. This could be useful depending on the
infrastructure we choose to use, and it is better to be explicit than
rely on Docbook's id generating algorithms.
I got rid of the metadata segments of the Markdown files, because they
are outdated, inaccurate, and could make people less willing to change
them without speaking with the author.
See https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/106950
> They way it's worded says buildInputs are for build-time and nativeBuildInputs are for run-time. The other documentation leads me to believe it is the other way around.
The sectn and ulink hacks are not necessary since pandoc has been defaulting to Docbook 5 for a long time.
With the pandoc patches, we can get rid of id→xml:id replacement and xmlns hacks as well.

I did double-check that the fixed version does what we would want. In
either case, the katamari script is mostly of historical value, and
there's nothing to change in pkgs.
I tested the shell snippets shown here; they work. Note that, because
they're intended for copy-and-paste, I did *not* make them into
ShellSessions with prompts. But that's something I can do if desired.
This example was confusing at first because the element the message
indicated wasn't in the list of possible values was but the possible
values didn't match up either. This ensures the example is consistent
with the logic being presented.
Each invocation of pkgs.extends adds 130MB of allocation to the hydra
evaluator. We are already struggling with the amount of memory nixpkgs
requires.
`pkgs.extend` is a useful escape-hatch, but should be not be used inside
of nixpkgs directly.
This is essentially an automatic pandoc conversion of the weechat
section in docbook as part of the larger CommonMark Docs project

With the addition of ruby.withPackages, manveru rewrote the nixpkgs
manual section for the ruby language but did not add it to the manual.
This commit replaces the previous documentation with manveru's updated
version.
