He prefers to contribute to his own nixpkgs fork triton.
Since he is still marked as maintainer in many packages
this leaves the wrong impression he still maintains those.
These packages should in theory work with our GCC toolchains, but
there are some definite breakages that need to be tracked down.
Comparing output of these to old gcc-arm-embedded is important.
Affected packages include:
- axolooti
- avrdudess
- opentx
- microscheme
- betaflight
- inav
- blackmagic
- simavr
- gnuk
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)
