There is a bug in this feature: It allows extra arguments to leak in
from the environment. For example:
$ export extraFlagsArray=date
$ man ls
Note that you get the man page for date rather than for ls. This happens
because 'man' happens to use a wrapper (to add groff to its PATH).
An attempt to fix this was made in 5ae18574fce in PR #19328 for
issue #2537, but 1. That change didn't actually fix the problem because
it addressed makeWrapper's environment during the build process, not the
constructed wrapper script's environment after installation, and 2. That
change was apparently accidentally lost when merged with 7ff6eec5fd8.
Rather than trying to fix the bug again, we remove the extraFlagsArray
feature, since it has never been used in the public repo in the ten
years it has been available.
wrapAclocal continues to use its own, separate flavor of extraFlagsArray
in a more limited context. The analogous bug there was fixed in
4d7d10da6b1 in 2011.
This reverts commit 41af38f3728bd64b80721c44ed1fb019978cbc1b, reversing
changes made to f0fec244ca380b9d3e617ee7b419c59758c8b0f1.
Let's delay this. We have some serious regressions.
The architecture of an image should default to the architecture for
which that image is being composed or pulled. buildPackages.go.GOARCH is
an easy way to compute that architecture with the correct terminology.
These should not cause issues in practice but it is good idea to handle them.
* prefix and targetOffset are mandatory, as they are always set by the generic builder.
* wrapPrefixVariables and dontWrapGApps are now defaulting to empty value, as they are not mandatory.
Before this change, buildRustCrate always called rustc with
--extern libName=[...]libName[...]
However, Cargo permits using a different name under which a dependency
is known to a crate. For example, rand 0.7.0 uses:
[dependencies]
getrandom_package = { version = "0.1.1", package = "getrandom", optional = true }
Which introduces the getrandom dependency such that it is known as
getrandom_package to the rand crate. In this case, the correct extern
flag is of the form
--extern getrandom_package=[...]getrandom[...]
which is currently not supported. In order to support such cases, this
change introduces a crateRenames argument to buildRustCrate. This
argument is an attribute set of dependencies that should be renamed. In
this case, crateRenames would be:
{
"getrandom" = "getrandom_package";
}
The extern options are then built such that if the libName occurs as
an attribute in this set, it value will be used as the local
name. Otherwise libName will be used as before.
luarocks defines by default the following mirrors:
83093e7da7/src/luarocks/core/cfg.lua (L205)
Let's add them to nixpkgs. I have modified luarocks-nix to generate the
proper nixpkgs urls.
I bump luarocks-nix in the following commits.
This is a new package that provides a shell hook to make it easy to
declare manpages and shell completions in a manner that doesn't require
remembering where to actually install them. Basic usage looks like
{ stdenv, installShellFiles, ... }:
stdenv.mkDerivation {
# ...
nativeBuildInputs = [ installShellFiles ];
postInstall = ''
installManPage doc/foobar.1
installShellCompletion --bash share/completions/foobar.bash
installShellCompletion --fish share/completions/foobar.fish
installShellCompletion --zsh share/completions/_foobar
'';
# ...
}
See source comments for more details on the functions.
applyPatches applies a list of patches to a source directory.
For example to patch nixpkgs you can use:
applyPatches {
src = pkgs.path;
patches = [
(pkgs.fetchpatch {
url = "1f770d2055.patch";
sha256 = "1nlzx171y3r3jbk0qhvnl711kmdk57jlq4na8f8bs8wz2pbffymr";
})
];
}
There ver very many conflicts, basically all due to
name -> pname+version. Fortunately, almost everything was auto-resolved
by kdiff3, and for now I just fixed up a couple evaluation problems,
as verified by the tarball job. There might be some fallback to these
conflicts, but I believe it should be minimal.
