Each bootstrapping stage ought to just depend on the previous stage, but
poorly-written compilers break this elegence. This provides an easy-enough
way to depend on the next stage: targetPackages. PLEASE DO NOT USE IT
UNLESS YOU MUST!
I'm hoping someday in a pleasant future I can revert this commit :)
- `pkgs` is self-similar, and thus already spliced
- `buildPackages` is an ingredient of splicing and should be kept as is
- The platforms are not packages or package sets and couldn't be spliced
There's probably other things that shouldn't be spliced too. The best long-
term solution is simply to stop splicing altogether.
OVMF is built from edk2 sources so that's where its version number comes
from (logically). The edk2 version number is 2014-12-10, so this change
only ensures the version numbers won't drift apart in the future. (There
is no hash change.)
This is currently our default display manager, so I'm adding this to the
"tested" job as well to ensure we don't ship broken revisions where X is
most likely not working.
The test uses a custom SLiM theme that's specifically tailored for good
OCR results (mainly white background and black fonts without anything
else), because our default NixOS theme has a very small contrast between
background and fonts in some places.

The main change here is a patch of SLiM to tread a log file of
/dev/stderr specially in that it now uses std::cerr instead of a file
for logging.
This allows us to set the logfile to stderr in NixOS for the generated
SLiM configuration file and we now get logging to the systemd journal.

runit-init calls the runit executable as /sbin/runit, which
obviously fails for us.
This should improve support for using runit as an init replacement.
The idea is to provide a convenient way to enable most vanilla hardening
features in one go. The hardened profile, then, will serve as a place for
features that enhance security but cannot be enabled for all deployments
because they interfere with legitimate use cases (e.g., using ptrace to
debug problems in an already running process).

This reverts commit 6b7c5ba535.
Unfortunately it seems like this broke slim, lightdm and gdm (see #25068
and #23264). This is already reverted in the 17.03 branch (99dfb6d).
TODO: We need tests for slim and lightdm and fix the test for gdm
(failing since 2016-10-26) to prevent such breakage in the future.
