Previously some games were not able to load some WebP image assets,
eg. the Erase game failed to display any cute background image,
making it unattractive:
> qrc:/gcompris/src/activities/erase/Erase.qml:26:20: QML Image:
> Error decoding: qrc:/gcompris/src/activities/erase/resource/butterfly.webp:
> Unsupported image format
While preparing this change, I read the git blame on all of the files I
touched. I saw a working lifetime of building this system which we use
every day and love dearly and keep maintained ourselves. I saw commits
from a 14 year range between 2003 to 2017!! I could not be more thankful
for Eelco's work on building large parts of the foundation of nixpkgs
that all of us rely on now.
However, the end date of that range of the files I looked at the blame
on was 2017. I did not see surviving code from any newer date than that.
Looking at the Git logs, Eelco has been working on other things, and
that's totally fine.
However, it means that our maintenance metadata is out of date on a lot
of packages, and *that*'s the reason I am submitting this change. There
are a lot of packages that don't have anyone with their name on them to
be pinged if they need attention, even if they have had recent activity
(although it is never clear if recent activity was just someone fixing
it because ZHF or because the package actually matters to them).
There are a lot of packages with storied history that maybe don't need
to be in the set anymore at all since they have not been touched in
years; or maybe they are simply finished.
Empty maintainer lists should be a sign that we need to figure out who
maintains it or potentially remove it if it has rotted, and allowing the
maintainer list to be empty if it is already not maintained is part of a
healthy repository ecology.
Either way, I would like to have the maintenance metadata not mislead
anyone into sending Eelco emails about packages he doesn't, in practice,
work on anymore. I have not removed his name from everything; there are
some things that he is the upstream for or has worked on more recently,
for instance, like Nix, which I have left alone.
The xxxFlagsArray variants were never meant to be used in nix code, at
least they can't be used properly without __structuredAttrs turned on.
If no spaces are passed in the argument the xxxFlagsArray can be
replaced as-is with the non-Array variant. When whitespace needs to be
passed, the derivation is additionally changed to enable
__structuredAttrs.
This removes the hardcoded Steam root in the bootstrap fixer, which lets it work
even if the user has moved their Steam root to somewhere other than the default
location.
Irrlicht's SDL device (=backend) was enabled by default for the 5.9.0
pre-release, but was disabled again at the last minute before the
release due to issues reported by some users.
NOTE: the irrlicht device is a compile time option and cannot be
switched at runtime.
* remove irrlichtmt input. Minetest's irrlicht fork has been moved into
the minetest repo and is now statically linked.
* remove mesa from buildInputs for darwin. Otherwise startup fails with
"OpenGL driver version is not 1.2 or better." and "Shaders are enabled
but GLSL is not supported by the driver.". Presumably that happens
because minetest tries to use an incomplete OpenGL driver from mesa
instead of the drivers provided by macOS.
* remove withTouchSupport arg, as the upstream CMake option has been
removed. Touch support should now always be enabled.
* make minetest-touch an alias for minetestclient
* remove unused args
Re-roll of https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/328907, but this time
adding the patch from ArchLinux, which keeps both EGL and GLX code paths
active.
Remove overrides where EGL was explicitly requested previously, as well
as the glew-egl package variant.
Add an alias for glew-egl, in case there's any users of this outside
of nixpkgs.
rust 1.80 requires updating the 'time' crate to at least 0.3.35.
That update is already in anki's master branch but it isn't anywhere
close to time for a new release, so just bump time and only time
manually for our tree.
(This also fixes anki-sync-server which usese the same sources/Cargo
deps, when removing the patch during the next update it will need to be
removed from both files as written in comment)
