According to the release notes this is a
"This release is meant to prepare the stable release for January, before the freeze in Debian an Ubuntu ".
Not sure what that means, but I expect a stable release
in NixOS 20.03 for sure.

anydesk moves tar archives of older versions into a sub folder linux-generic, which breaks this package. Use two URLs to take care of both recent and older versions.
Unfree packages aren't distributed by our binary cache due to legal
reasons[1] and are usually a prebuilt binary that requires some patching.
When using distributed builds[2], those are uploaded to another build
machine as fixed-output derivations from `fetchurl` are built locally[3]
which takes a certain amount of time and resources with almost no gain
as the build process is trivial in contrast to the up/download to a
remote builder.
This is why I figured that at least some of the packages should be
explicitly built locally, I've done something simlar for
`citrix_workspace` already in the past[4].
The following packages are affected by this:
* `idea.*` (excluding free derivatives)
* `xmind`
* `teamviewer`

New release:
https://www.citrix.de/downloads/workspace-app/linux/workspace-app-for-linux-latest.html
(unfortunately there's no version-specific link for the latest version).
Also added `preferLocalBuild = true;` to the derivation, due to
`requireFile` you have to build it yourself anyway, however I use
distributed builds by default and figured that this shouldn't be needed
since the longest part of the build would be the upload of the source
archive in that case.
There ver very many conflicts, basically all due to
name -> pname+version. Fortunately, almost everything was auto-resolved
by kdiff3, and for now I just fixed up a couple evaluation problems,
as verified by the tarball job. There might be some fallback to these
conflicts, but I believe it should be minimal.
