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 tool is here: https://github.com/Aleksanaa/by-name-migrate.
Using `findutils` in such a way where `callPackage` cannot splice it to
use the `buildPlatform`'s package-set breaks building `linux-firmware`
when `buildPlatform` != `hostPlatform`. Since `findutils` is already
included in all `stdenv.mkDerivation` calls, we can get rid of pulling
in the different `findutils` and re-use the one that works on
`buildPlatform`.
This updates the ipu6 driver and firmware to a more recent version,
which seems to at least work in Chrom{e,ium}.
ipu6-drivers now relies on the in-kernel ipu6 kernel driver, so we
update our logic and metadata for it.
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.
```
fd --type f "\.nix" | xargs sd --fixed-strings "stdenv.is" "stdenv.hostPlatform.is"
fd --type f "\.nix" | xargs sd --fixed-strings "stdenv'.is" "stdenv'.hostPlatform.is"
fd --type f "\.nix" | xargs sd --fixed-strings "clangStdenv.is" "clangStdenv.hostPlatform.is"

```
This being a FOD seems to only have historical reasons.
Remove the source.nix file, as well as the custom update script, and FOD.
Simply making this a normal input-addressed derivation, with a version
being interpolated makes this easy to update with update-source-version.
Every time I decide to commit additional time to contributing to nix,
quite a few "concerned" members come out, either to decry a ban on
bigotry and fascism in 2021, or to declare support for minority groups
in Nix discriminatory, or a number of other incidents that are not worth
recounting in this leaving message.
To avoid any ambiguity, my reasoning is similar to pr306702, pr307033, and
several others who felt actively made unwelcome or outright harassed out
of the Nix project.
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)
