`lshw` is not showing in the nixpkgs-unstable listings in repology, but
it is showing in the previous stable release (release-21.11). The reason
for this was a change in 8d0267dc8f, that
fixed the `lshw` version to include its letter prefix.
However, the way the version is computed for repology is to parse the
`name` attr instead, separating it in `pname` and `version`. The
function that does this (`builtins.parseDrvName`) considers anything
that is a `name` everything up to the first dash followed by a digit.
Because the `version` includes the letter `B` as prefix, it them ends up
splitting it wrong.
See https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/4463 for a proper fix, but for now
let's just "fix" this by not including the prefix in the `version`.
- Bump version
- Switch to `fetchFromGitHub` to get updates from @r-ryantm bot
- Remove patches (they're merged upstream)
- Update dependencies
- Fix version workaround (not necessary anymore)
- Add myself as maintainer
having pkgs.logrotate depend on mailutils brings in quite a bit of dependencies
through mailutil itself and recursive dependency to guile when most people
do not need it.
Remove mailutils dependency from the package, and conditionally add it to the
service if the user specify the mail option either at top level or in a path
Fixes#162001
At some point, I'd like to make another attempt at
71f1f4884b ("openssl: stop static binaries referencing libs"), which
was reverted in 195c7da07d. One problem with my previous attempt is
that I moved OpenSSL's libraries to a lib output, but many dependent
packages were hardcoding the out output as the location of the
libraries. This patch fixes every such case I could find in the tree.
It won't have any effect immediately, but will mean these packages
will automatically use an OpenSSL lib output if it is reintroduced in
future.
This patch should cause very few rebuilds, because it shouldn't make
any change at all to most packages I'm touching. The few rebuilds
that are introduced come from when I've changed a package builder not
to use variable names like openssl.out in scripts / substitution
patterns, which would be confusing since they don't hardcode the
output any more.
I started by making the following global replacements:
${pkgs.openssl.out}/lib -> ${lib.getLib pkgs.openssl}/lib
${openssl.out}/lib -> ${lib.getLib openssl}/lib
Then I removed the ".out" suffix when part of the argument to
lib.makeLibraryPath, since that function uses lib.getLib internally.
Then I fixed up cases where openssl was part of the -L flag to the
compiler/linker, since that unambigously is referring to libraries.
Then I manually investigated and fixed the following packages:
- pycurl
- citrix-workspace
- ppp
- wraith
- unbound
- gambit
- acl2
I'm reasonably confindent in my fixes for all of them.
For acl2, since the openssl library paths are manually provided above
anyway, I don't think openssl is required separately as a build input
at all. Removing it doesn't make a difference to the output size, the
file list, or the closure.
I've tested evaluation with the OfBorg meta checks, to protect against
introducing evaluation failures.
