Done with the help of https://github.com/Mindavi/nixpkgs-mark-broken
Tool is still WIP but this is one of the first results.
I manually audited the results and removed some results that were not valid.
Note that some of these packages maybe should have more constrained platforms set
instead of broken set, but I think not being perfectly correct is better than
just keep trying to build all these things and never succeeding.
Some observations:
- Some darwin builds require XCode tools
- aarch64-linux builds sometimes suffer from using gcc9
- gcc9 is getting older and misses some new libraries/features
- Sometimes tools try to do system detection or expect some explicit settings for
platforms that are not x86_64-linux
continuation of #109595
pkgconfig was aliased in 2018, however, it remained in
all-packages.nix due to its wide usage. This cleans
up the remaining references to pkgs.pkgsconfig and
moves the entry to aliases.nix.
python3Packages.pkgconfig remained unchanged because
it's the canonical name of the upstream package
on pypi.
This makes the command ‘nix-env -qa -f. --arg config '{skipAliases =
true;}'’ work in Nixpkgs.
Misc...
- qtikz: use libsForQt5.callPackage
This ensures we get the right poppler.
- rewrites:
docbook5_xsl -> docbook_xsl_ns
docbook_xml_xslt -> docbook_xsl
diffpdf: fixup
Semi-automatic update. These checks were performed:
- built on NixOS
- ran `/nix/store/3f76mczmag2wnkww6la0hcdnf82jly92-lsyncd-2.2.2/bin/lsyncd --version` and found version 2.2.2
- found 2.2.2 with grep in /nix/store/3f76mczmag2wnkww6la0hcdnf82jly92-lsyncd-2.2.2
- found 2.2.2 in filename of file in /nix/store/3f76mczmag2wnkww6la0hcdnf82jly92-lsyncd-2.2.2
