In anticipation of what I outline in #33599, I only simplify exactly those
`doCheck`s which are equal to `hostPlatform != buildPlatform`. I also stick a
comment next to them so I can grep for them later.
Keep the `source` attrset distinct to prevent its entries from merging
with the top level attrs.
Since each type of source has a different set of entries for `source`,
this is the easiest way to keep them together.
This will pave the way for a new `url` type of source.
This is a mass-rebuild of many ruby packages,
notably those using `git` type sources.
The biggest benefit is that we no longer have to update the registry
package. This means that just about any cargo package can be built by
nix. No longer does `cargo update` need to be feared because it will
update to packages newer then what is available in nixpkgs.
Instead of fetching the cargo registry this bundles all the source code
into a "vendor/" folder.
This also uses the new --frozen and --locked flags which is nice.
Currently cargo-vendor only provides binaries for Linux and
macOS 64-bit. This can be solved by building it for the other
architectures and uploading it somewhere (like the NixOS cache).
This also has the downside that it requires a change to everyone's deps
hash. And if the old one is used because it was cached it will fail to
build as it will attempt to use the old version. For this reason the
attribute has been renamed to `cargoSha256`.

This requires some small changes in the stdenv, then working around the
weird choice LLVM made to hardcode @rpath in its install name, and then
lets us remove a ton of annoying workaround hacks in many of our Go
packages. With any luck this will mean less hackery going forward.

10k staging builds are not yet finished on Hydra (mostly darwin),
but we now have a 20k jobs rebuilding directly on master, so we would
never get to merge this way...
This reverts commit 0a944b345e, reversing
changes made to 61733ed6cc.
I dislike these massive stdenv changes with unclear motivation,
especially when they involve gratuitous mass renames like NIX_CC ->
NIX_BINUTILS. The previous such rename (NIX_GCC -> NIX_CC) caused
months of pain, so let's not do that again.
- Don't build with libsigsegv by default. The build apparently attempted
to link against it, but it never retained the reference anyway...
- Side effect: stdenv bootstrapping needs no libsigsegv anymore.
- Run checks, but only in the interactive gawk by default on Linux,
so that stdenv bootstrap isn't slowed down (by glibc locales, etc.).
- xz should be no longer needed in inputs, as we have it in stdenvs now.
The whole change was triggered by some used kernel versions still
breaking libsigsegv tests #28464.
* pkgs: refactor needless quoting of homepage meta attribute
A lot of packages are needlessly quoting the homepage meta attribute
(about 1400, 22%), this commit refactors all of those instances.
* pkgs: Fixing some links that were wrongfully unquoted in the previous
commit
* Fixed some instances
This enables groff to correctly respond to the LESS_TERMCAP_*
environment variables, allowing colorized man pages.
Patch is taken from Arch Linux;
see https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/33760.
Add the package `staccato`, "a command line program that lets you
compute statistics from values from a file or standard input".
I have tested this change per nixpkgs manual section 13.1 ("Making
patches").
Without this there's an eval error, when running nix-env -f '<nixpkgs>'
--query --available --json.

Closes#21150
In category `tools`, subcategory `text`, add a package definition for
the program [`agrep`] [1] — "Approximate `grep` for fast fuzzy string
searching".
I have tested this patch per nixpkgs manual section 11.1 ("Making
patches").
[1]: <https://www.tgries.de/agrep/>
From the website,
https://gitlab.com/mjwhitta/zoom
Zoom adds some convenience to ag/ack/grep by allowing you to quickly
open your search results in your editor of choice.
Also available as a ruby gem.
https://rubygems.org/gems/ruby-zoom
In addition to including the ruby-zoom tool, we also added a global
override for the ruby-terminfo gem to handle the ncurses build time
dependency.
After #16017 there were a lot
of comments saying that `nix` would be better than `JSON`
for Go packages dependency sets.
As said in https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/16017#issuecomment-229624046

This PR removes `libs.json` file and puts all package dependencies in
theirs `deps.json`.
For some reason I haven't been able to figure out, sift does not build on OSX.
I think it is because sift uses cgo for some of its functionality which you can
see here:
https://github.com/svent/sift/blob/master/matching_cgo.go#L23
The error which hydra found (and is reproducible on OSX) can be seen here:
https://hydra.nixos.org/build/37169149
Ideally I would like to get sift building on OSX, however my nix-fu is weak.
Any suggestions are welcome. In the meantime I would like to get sift into one
of the release channels for Linux where it works fine.
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)
