This is to fix a regression in upstream Racket packaging, the upstream
bug tracking this is here:
https://github.com/racket/racket/issues/3046
When the bug is fixed this workaround will be unnecessary.
According to https://repology.org/repository/nix_unstable/problems, we have a
lot of packages that have http links that redirect to https as their homepage.
This commit updates all these packages to use the https links as their
homepage.
The following script was used to make these updates:
```
curl https://repology.org/api/v1/repository/nix_unstable/problems \
| jq '.[] | .problem' -r \
| rg 'Homepage link "(.+)" is a permanent redirect to "(.+)" and should be updated' --replace 's@$1@$2@' \
| sort | uniq > script.sed
find -name '*.nix' | xargs -P4 -- sed -f script.sed -i
```
We don't actually perform any network access, but since Racket 7.0,
when certain modules are loaded, they emit an annoying warning.
While compiling the bundled packages, this happens over and over and
pollutes the logs.
Having a correct SSL configuration prevents the warnings.
This makes the command ‘nix-env -qa -f. --arg config '{skipAliases =
true;}'’ work in Nixpkgs.
Misc...
- qtikz: use libsForQt5.callPackage
This ensures we get the right poppler.
- rewrites:
docbook5_xsl -> docbook_xsl_ns
docbook_xml_xslt -> docbook_xsl
diffpdf: fixup
Racket checks the current platform via uname, then disallows
unix domain socket usage based on the result. Previously, it could not
successfully call uname at all, so it fell back to denying UDS.
Technically, racket compiles and packages too, but it doesn't pass all
tests yet, so the build fails.
gcc7Stdenv is GCC 7 with the MacOS-specific adaptations retained.
Building on MacOS with that works, but we should be using clang.
I'm hoping that the next person wanting to override the compiler
version in some other derivation sees that attribute and doesn't
inadvertently break a MacOS build again.
Racket without the bundled packages, such as Mr Racket.
The essential package racket-libs is included, as well as libraries
that live in collections. In particular, raco and the pkg library are
still bundled.
The attached patch advances the version of the racket expression in
nixpkgs to the latest released 6.8 version.
