This is necessary for lib.getExe to work correctly, as the package name
does not match the binary name.

Note: I DO NOT resign from nixpkgs, not at all!
However, I like a clean notification inbox and I get a lot of stuff for
packages where I'm only an end-user or don't use them anymore and thus
can't help out that much.
So please consider it a measure to reduce the mental load for me when
going through my notifications ;-)
Since years I'm not maintaining anything of the list below other
than some updates when I needed them for some reason. Other people
is doing that maintenance on my behalf so I better take me out but
for very few packages. Finally!
* bemenu: init at 2017-02-14
* velox: 2015-11-03 -> 2017-07-04
* orbment, velox: don't expose subprojects
the development of orbment and velox got stuck
their subprojects (bemenu, dmenu-wayland, st-wayland) don't work correctly outside of parent projects
so hide them to not confuse people
swc and wld libraries are unpopular and unlike wlc are not used by anything except velox
* pythonPackages.pydbus: init at 0.6.0
* way-cooler: 0.5.2 -> 0.6.2
* nixos/way-cooler: add module
* dconf module: use for wayland
non-invasive approach for #31293
see discussion at #32210
* sway: embed LD_LIBRARY_PATH for #32755
* way-cooler: switch from buildRustPackage to buildRustCrate #31150
The `dmenu` package includes two binary programs, `dmenu` and `stest`,
and two shell scripts, `dmenu_run` and `dmenu_path`. `dmenu_run`
invokes `dmenu` and `dmenu_path`, and `dmenu_path` invokes `stest`.
`dmenu_run`'s invocation of `dmenu` was patched to run it by its full
store path, but its invocation of `dmenu_path` and `dmenu_path`'s
invocation of `stest` were not.
If `dmenu_path` and `stest` were not in the set of system packages or
otherwise in the `PATH`, this situation would result in `dmenu_run`
opening a dmenu instance with no menu entries (which would normally be
generated by `dmenu_path`, which `dmenu_run` couldn't find, as it was
running it by `PATH` lookup).
This commit fixes the package to also patch the invocation of
`dmenu_path` in `dmenu_run` and the invocations of `stest` in
`dmenu_path` to invoke those programs by their full store paths.
I have tested this change on NixOS.
In line with the Nixpkgs manual.
A mechanical change, done with this command:
find pkgs -name "*.nix" | \
while read f; do \
sed -e 's/description\s*=\s*"\([a-z]\)/description = "\u\1/' -i "$f"; \
done
I manually skipped some:
* Descriptions starting with an abbreviation, a user name or package name
* Frequently generated expressions (haskell-packages.nix)
is extended using patches http://tools.suckless.org/dmenu/patches/ this
argument makes it easier to extend dmenu by doing:
dmenu.overwritte {
patches = [
./dmenu-4.4-follow-focus.diff";
];
};
If dmenu isn't installed in the user environment, dmenu_run will fail
because it searches $PATH for its own binaries.
