Some packages are only marked broken on specific platforms, so we
filter those out as well.
Consequently, this might not raise an error if the attribute value
needs to point to a different pkgs attribute, but this is not something
we can detect. For now, we'll have to rely on users of such pkg-config
packages to report that kind of error.
There's really not much we can do about this here.
error: The option `settings.NIXOS_TEST_BOOLEAN.tristate' has conflicting definition values:
- In `structuredExtraConfig': "n"
- In `structuredExtraConfig': "y"

yes does not silently win over no
Closes#16182
This improves the error message
Error: _assignFirst found no valid variant!
which occurred when the set of outputs was not sufficient to set
the various outputDev, outputBin, etc variables. Specifically, this
would mean that "out" is not among the outputs, which is valid for
a derivation.
This changes the message to something like
error: _assignFirst: could not find a non-empty variable to assign to outputDev. The following variables were all unset or empty: dev out.
If you did not define an "out" output, make sure to define all the specific required outputs: define an output for one of the unset variables.
While this isn't a full explanation of what stdenv can and can not do,
I think it's vast improvement over the 0 bits of information that it
used to provide. This at least gives a clue as to what's going on, and
even suggests a fix, although probably multiple such fixes are required
in an instance where someone starts with a no-out derivation from scratch
(and decide to persist).
Derivations not using `__structuredAttrs` should not attempt to set
environment variables from `env`.
Derivations using `__structuredAttrs` should fail if `env` is not
exportable.
Avoids confusion: `vim-full`'s build-time features are configurable, but both
`vim` and `vim-full` are *customizable* (in the sense of user configuration).
Previously, the cutensor samples could not find the libcutensor.so.1
shared library at runtime. This patch adds cutensor as a buildInput so
the shared library is linked in properly.
