* fetchurl: fix and add extra KDE mirrors (#51480)
- The gwdg.de mirror has moved the relative path of its KDE tarballs
- Add new mirrors from Berkeley and MIT, which are on the list of officially supported mirrors
https://download.kde.org/extra/download-mirrors.html
* More KDE mirror touchups
- The official one is a redirect to HTTPS anyways, so go directly to HTTPS
- Add China USTC for Asian users
- Swap Finland university from FTP to HTTP
* fetchurl: keep one ftp KDE mirror
Docker images used to be, essentially, a linked list of layers. Each
layer would have a tarball and a json document pointing to its parent,
and the image pointed to the top layer:
imageA ----> layerA
|
v
layerB
|
v
layerC
The current image spec changed this format to where the Image defined
the order and set of layers:
imageA ---> layerA
|--> layerB
`--> layerC
For backwards compatibility, docker produces images which follow both
specs: layers point to parents, and images also point to the entire
list:
imageA ---> layerA
| |
| v
|--> layerB
| |
| v
`--> layerC
This is nice for tooling which supported the older version and never
updated to support the newer format.
Our `buildImage` code only supported the old version, so in order for
`buildImage` to properly generate an image based on another image
with `fromImage`, the parent image's layers must fully support the old
mechanism.
This is not a problem in general, but is a problem with
`buildLayeredImage`.
`buildLayeredImage` creates images with newer image spec, because
individual store paths don't have a guaranteed parent layer. Including
a specific parent ID in the layer's json makes the output less likely
to cache hit when published or pulled.
This means until now, `buildLayeredImage` could not be the input to
`buildImage`.
The changes in this PR change `buildImage` to only use the layer's
manifest when locating parent IDs. This does break buildImage on
extremely old Docker images, though I do wonder how many of these
exist.
This work has been sponsored by Target.
If there was no older file than $NIX_BUILD_TOP this would result in a
warning, e.g. with nix-info.

This commit causes melpaBuild to use package-build from melpa/package-build
instead of melpa/melpa. Development of package-build happens in the former
repository whereas the latter is much larger, containing also the MELPA
recipes. We do not need to fetch the MELPA recipes from melpa/melpa, as we fetch
them one-by-one for Nixpkgs.
No real function change here, but this updates the trivial and melpa builders to
be formatted more consistently with the rest of the builders, and swaps
`eval "$preBuild"` for the more standard `runHook preBuild`.
If the file in question is not a shared object file but an ELF, we
really want to skip the file, because we won't have anything to patch
there.
For example if the file is created via "gcc -c -o foo.o foo.c", we don't
get a segment header and so far autoPatchelf was trying to patch such a
file.
By checking for missing segment headers, we're now no longer going to
attempt patching such a file.

While declaring it as an array doesn't do any harm in our usage, it
might be a bit confusing when reading the code.

This function is useful if autoPatchelf is invoked during some of the
phases of a build and allows to add arbitrary shared objects to the
search path.
So far the same functionality was in autoPatchelf itself, but not
available as a separate function, so when adding shared objects to the
dependency cache one would have to do so manually.
The function also has the --no-recurse flag, which prevents recursing
into subdirectories.

This is to be used with the autoPatchelf command and allows to only
patch a specific file or directory without recursing into
subdirectories.
Apart from being able to run the command in a standalone way, as
detailled in the previous commit this is also needed for the Android SDK
emulator, because according to @svanderburg there are subdirectories we
don't want to patch.
The reason why I didn't use GNU getopt is that it might not be available
on all operating systems and the getopts bash builtin doesn't support
long arguments. Apart from that, the implementation for recognizing the
flag is pretty trivial and it's also using bash builtins only, so if we
want to do something really fancy someday, we can still change it.

If you want to only run autoPatchelf on a specific path and leave
everything else alone, we now have a $dontAutoPatchelf environment
variable, which causes the postFixup hook to not run at all.
The name "dontAutoPatchelf" probably is a bit weird in conjunction with
putting "autoPatchelfHook" in nativeBuildInputs, but unless someone
comes up with a better name I keep it that way because it's consistent
with all the other dontStrip, dontPatchShebangs, dontPatchELF and
whatnot.
A specific example where this is needed is when building the Android SDK
emulator, which contains a few ARM binaries in subdirectories that
should not be patched. If we were to run autoPatchelf on all outputs
unconditionally we'd run into errors because some ARM libraries couldn't
be found.

The autoPatchelf main function which is run against all of the outputs
was pretty much tailored towards this specific setup-hook and was
relying on $prefix to be set globally.
So if you wanted to run autoPatchelf manually - let's say during
buildPhase - you would have needed to run it like this:
prefix=/some/directory autoPatchelf
This is now more intuitive and all you need to do is run the following:
autoPatchelf /some/directory
