We are migrating packages that meet below requirements:
1. using `callPackage`
2. called path is a directory
3. overriding set is empty (`{ }`)
4. not containing path expressions other than relative path (to
makenixpkgs-vet happy)
5. not referenced by nix files outside of the directory, other
than`pkgs/top-level/all-packages.nix`
6. not referencing nix files outside of the directory
7. not referencing `default.nix` (since it's changed to `package.nix`)
8. `outPath` doesn't change after migration

The indentation stripping semantics of strings are fairly bad and have a
few gotchas where the resulting string has not the intended indentation.
This commit fixes most if not all such instances in Nixpkgs.
I tried to strive a balance between keeping the diff small and
reformatting/refactoring the code to look better. In general,
reformatting should be left to Nixfmt.
Note that this causes a lot of rebuilds by design. All changes need to
be thoroughly vetted and reviewed for correctness. There is no automatic
way to prove correctness.
List of files to fix generated by running
https://gerrit.lix.systems/c/lix/+/2092 on Nixpkgs and looking at the
warnings.
In preparation for the deprecation of `stdenv.isX`.
These shorthands are not conducive to cross-compilation because they
hide the platforms.
Darwin might get cross-compilation for which the continued usage of `stdenv.isDarwin` will get in the way
One example of why this is bad and especially affects compiler packages
https://www.github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/343059
There are too many files to go through manually but a treewide should
get users thinking when they see a `hostPlatform.isX` in a place where it
doesn't make sense.

Mesa is a package like any other. There's no reason for it to be a
special case with its platforms listed in lib, because if other
packages want to refer to mesa's platforms, they can access the
platforms from the package meta like they would for any other package.
As can be read on the current Celestia project site’s
[news](https://celestiaproject.space/news.html),
on Jun. 28, 2023 their new domain was moved to
https://celestiaproject.space, because (and I quote):
“Cybersquatters were faster and we’re not eager to give them $$$.”
Their [old domain](https://celestia.space) seems indeed like a parked
domain (as of 2024-07-27T17:00).
Allow the macOS GLUT framework to be used automatically in many
cases. Packages that specifically search for freeglut or require its
additional APIs should still explicitly depend on it.
Deliberately skip the Haskell package set, which is mostly
automatically generated, and mupdf, which has its own fork of freeglut.
Add a passthru test to stellarium to verify it can be started and print
its version.
The test runs stellarium with a temporary home directory
using xvfb-run, since stellarium requires a writable home directory and
cannot be run in headless mode.
This was achieved using the following command:
sd 'wrapGAppsHook\b' wrapGAppsHook3 (rg -l 'wrapGAppsHook\b')
And then manually reverted the following changes:
- alias in top-level.nix
- function name in wrap-gapps-hook.sh
- comment in postFixup of at-spi2-core
- comment in gtk4
- comment in preFixup of 1password-gui/linux.nix
- comment in postFixup of qgis/unwrapped-ltr.nix and qgis/unwrapped.nix
- comment in postFixup of telegram-desktop
- comment in postFixup of fwupd
- buildCommand of mongodb-compass
- postFixup of xflux-gui
- comment in a patch in kdePackages.kde-gtk-config and plasma5Packages.kde-gtk-config
- description of programs.sway.wrapperFeatures.gtk NixOS option (manual rebuild)
The nixpkgs-unstable channel's programs.sqlite was used to identify
packages producing exactly one binary, and these automatically added
to their package definitions wherever possible.
