The nixpkgs-unstable channel's programs.sqlite was used to identify
packages producing exactly one binary, and these automatically added
to their package definitions wherever possible.
All our modifications have been merged upstream. There's no need to
point to the Nix Community fork anymore, pointing to
upstream (twosigma) instead.
Fixes#282485
I changed my nickname from Ninjatrappeur to Picnoir. My github id is
stable, it shouldn't break too much stuff.
I took advantage of this handle change to remove myself from the
hostapd maintainers: I don't use NixOS as a router anymore.
Done with the help of https://github.com/Mindavi/nixpkgs-mark-broken
Tool is still WIP but this is one of the first results.
I manually audited the results and removed some results that were not valid.
Note that some of these packages maybe should have more constrained platforms set
instead of broken set, but I think not being perfectly correct is better than
just keep trying to build all these things and never succeeding.
Some observations:
- Some darwin builds require XCode tools
- aarch64-linux builds sometimes suffer from using gcc9
- gcc9 is getting older and misses some new libraries/features
- Sometimes tools try to do system detection or expect some explicit settings for
platforms that are not x86_64-linux
