Since CUDA is unfree, we won't actually use this when testing Nixpkgs
officially. But I want to include this as they are useful for users of
Nixpkgs trying to set up / debug a CUDA environment.
I made a mistake merge. Reverting it in c778945806 undid the state
on master, but now I realize it crippled the git merge mechanism.
As the merge contained a mix of commits from `master..staging-next`
and other commits from `staging-next..staging`, it got the
`staging-next` branch into a state that was difficult to recover.
I reconstructed the "desired" state of staging-next tree by:
- checking out the last commit of the problematic range: 4effe769e2
- `git rebase -i --preserve-merges a8a018ddc0` - dropping the mistaken
merge commit and its revert from that range (while keeping
reapplication from 4effe769e2)
- merging the last unaffected staging-next commit (803ca85c20)
- fortunately no other commits have been pushed to staging-next yet
- applying a diff on staging-next to get it into that state
This makes it work like work-on-multi from Reflex Platform. In
particular, rather than making `.env` from `shellFor`, we make `.env`
the primitive, and `shellFor` works by combining together the arguments
of all the packages to `generic-builder` and taking the `.env` of the
resulting mashup-package.
There are 2 benefits of this:
1. The dependency logic is deduplicated. generic builder just concatted
lists, whereas all the envs until now would sieve apart haskell and
system build inputs. Now, they both decide haskell vs system the same
way: according to the argument list and without reflection.
Consistency is good, especially because it mean that if the build
works, the shell is more likely to work.
2. Cross is handled better. For native builds, because the
`ghcWithPackages` calls would shadow, we through both the regular
component (lib, exe, test, bench) haskell deps and Setup.hs haskell
deps in the same `ghcWithPackages` call. But for cross builds we use
`buildPackages.ghcWithPackages` to get the setup deps. This ensures
everything works correctly.
