"This release should be used instead of 3.0.1. This release fixes
several issues." - http://scons.org/scons-301-is-available.html
More than 90% of the 346 rebuilds succeed without any problems (I've
tested it against aeff3080d0). As far as I
can tell most of the problematic packages either failed before the
upgrade or for a reason that is unrelated to this SCons update. But it
is possible that this'll cause a few regressions, I'll try to watch out
for build failures on Hydra.
The attribute sconsPackages.scons_3_0_0 is still available in case this
breaks anything.
We are patching g-ir-scanner to produce absolute paths in the GIR
files. When an application uses an internal library placed in a
non-standard path (e.g. $out/lib/gnome-shell), the scanner needs
to be informed. For autotools-based apps, the full path was
obtained from libtool-wrapped files; with Meson, this is no longer
possible – we need to pass the path information in some other way.
This commit channels the --fallback-library-path option added
to g-ir-scanner in aforementioned patch.
- gcc not needed at all as dependency
- other D compilers can be used instead of dmd, so it's not good to use it as a runtime dependency.
- Adding checkPhase (disabled for now because network access is limited in sandbox mode)
- Improve package description.
"SCons release 3.0.0 now available from the download page at
SourceForge. This release should be used instead of 2.5.1. This release
fixes several issues. TThis will be the first release to support Python
versions earlier than 2.7 as well as 3.5+."
"NOTE: This is a major release. You should expect that some targets may
rebuild when upgrading. Significant changes in some python action
signatures. Also switching between PY 2.7 and PY 3.5, 3.6 will cause
rebuilds."
* Skip verifying checksums for already fetched packages.
Needed for two-staged building in Nix:
1. Build a fixed derivation with `bazel fetch` (filtered out of non-reproducable bits).
2. Build an actual derivation which uses fetched dependencies (skipping
checksums needed here because they depend on the build directory).
* Don't clean environment variables for children processes.
Needed for Nix compiler wrappers.
