This allows mailutils to be configured through
`environment.etc."mailutils.conf"`.
I could not figure out how to use `/etc/mail.rc` to set:
```
address {
email-domain "foo.lol";
}
```
* Remove readmsg-tests: the missing files are now present and the
files that were fetched caused test failures.
* Remove references to maidag, it was removed upstream.
* Fix test macro and enable tests.
checkInputs used to be added to nativeBuildInputs. Now we have
nativeCheckInputs to do that instead. Doing this treewide change allows
to keep hashes identical to before the introduction of
nativeCheckInputs.
As per the info page, the GNU "mail" command is supposed to default to SYSCONFDIR/mail.rc but this path doesn't make sense. Hardcode this to the systemwide path (/etc). This allows tools such as cron to make use of aliases.
system-sendmail allows all sendmail's to be auto-detected, including on
non-NixOS systems. This is, to me, a better UX than having to manually
override the sendmailPath argument.
In exchange, it is a breach of retro-compatibility. Given right now I
can't see any uses for sendmailPath other than what is supported by
system-sendmail, I didn't keep it, but it'd be possible to allow
sendmailPath to override the choice of sendmail from system-sendmail.
"platforms.gnu" has been linux-only since at least 17.03:
$ nix eval -f channel:nixos-17.03 lib.platforms.gnu
[ "i686-linux" "x86_64-linux" "armv5tel-linux" "armv6l-linux" "armv7l-linux" "aarch64-linux" "mips64el-linux" ]
Unlike platforms.linux, platforms.gnu indicates "must use glibc"
which for the most part is not intended.
Replacing platforms.gnu with platforms.linux would be the same "today"
but let's err on preserving existing behavior and be optimistic
about platforms these packages work on.
The following parameters are now available:
* hardeningDisable
To disable specific hardening flags
* hardeningEnable
To enable specific hardening flags
Only the cc-wrapper supports this right now, but these may be reused by
other wrappers, builders or setup hooks.
cc-wrapper supports the following flags:
* fortify
* stackprotector
* pie (disabled by default)
* pic
* strictoverflow
* format
* relro
* bindnow
Many (less easily automatically converted) old-style strings
remain.
Where there was any possible ambiguity about the exact version or
variant intended, nothing was changed. IANAL, nor a search robot.
Use `with stdenv.lib` wherever it makes sense.
