This PR applies the patches which fix a MIPS-specific bug in patchelf.
The patches are applied only if targetPlatform.isMips in order to:
1. Not cause a mass-rebuild on the mainstream platforms
2. Make this PR acceptable for inclusion in `master` rather than
`staging`.
This is the very last commit needed in order for Hydra to be able to
produce a bootstrap-files tarball for mips64el (the other one is in
`staging-next`).
This PR can be reverted after the next release of patchelf lands in
nixpkgs.
The C++ compiler in our musl bootstrap for aarch64 is too old to build
the latest version of patchelf, so we need to use the latest version
that builds with that compiler to get a new bootstrap.
The C++ compiler in our musl bootstrap for aarch64 is too old to build
the latest version of patchelf, so introduce a package for the most
recent version it's capable of building that we can use to get a new
bootstrap.
This adds a warning to the top of each “boot” package that reads:
Note: this package is used for bootstrapping fetchurl, and thus cannot
use fetchpatch! All mutable patches (generated by GitHub or cgit) that
are needed here should be included directly in Nixpkgs as files.
This makes it clear to maintainer that they may need to treat this
package a little differently than others. Importantly, we can’t use
fetchpatch here due to using <nix/fetchurl.nix>. To avoid having stale
hashes, we need to include patches that are subject to changing
overtime (for instance, gitweb’s patches contain a version number at
the bottom).
This is a partial revert of #58715. Bumping the default caused problems
described in #69213. I tested that the vscode corruption happened even
with the 0.10 pre-release, so I'm keeping patchelfUnstable on 0.10
(patchelfUnstable shouldn't cause a large rebuild anyway)
This is to reflect the bump for regular version. We are leaving
patchelfUnstable b/c in the future we may need it to get the very latest
patches to patchelf again.
Useful update-- adds support for accepting multiple files as arguments
and fixes handling of large executables (>2Gb).
While touching this, modify version to include more info.
Preserving version format previously used, although not usual style.
* treewide: http -> https sources
This updates the source urls of all top-level packages from http to
https where possible.
* buildtorrent: fix url and tab -> spaces
