"But Synthetica", I hear you say, "isn't that a downgrade?".
That's what I originally thought as well! So I emailed the maintainer
for the only other repo that had J on version 808, BSD FreePorts. Since
they also didn't know what was going on here, I emailed Jsoftware
themselves. I got a lovely email back from Mr. Iverson (Jr. I presume?)
himself:
So it has been confirmed from the horse's mouth that this _is_ the
correct version to be on.
I also re-enabled all the tests, since they all pass now, enabled the
build on ARM and Darwin (I don't have access to either kind of machine,
but I don't see why it wouldn't work), and added myself as a maintainer.
PHP tries to discover the mysql default socket path during configure
phase by probing the file system:
cf3b852109/ext/mysqli/config.m4 (L4)
This obviously fails to discover /run/mysqld/mysqld.sock, which is being
used (hardcoded) across all MySQL flavours.
This leads to PHP having no mysql socket path set for the mysql[i]
extensions, and `/tmp/mysql.sock` set for pdo_mysql,
meaning one currently has to manually configure and set it in php.ini.
Luckily, PHP supports setting that path via
`--with-mysql-sock=/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock` during configure phase,
so let's do this as soon as one of the three modules is enabled.
As per the following bug report, sometimes erts/start_scripts will fail
to compile because of a Makefile ordering issue. Apply the upstream
patches to fix this.
https://bugs.erlang.org/browse/ERL-241
This way we don't need to disable flags etc by platform and can still
backport new versions to stable for linux even if there's a bug or
something in the darwin build.
This also updates the bootstrap tool builder to LLVM 5, but not the ones
we actually use for bootstrap. I'll make that change in a subsequent commit
so as to provide traceable provenance of the bootstrap tools.
Both 5.6 and 7.0 is currently on life support, as in only recieving
security related patches.
This will only continue until:
- 2018-12-31 for PHP 5.6
- 2018-12-01 for PHP 7.0
Both these dates are in the middle of the 18.09 lifecycle. So it would
be nice to not have them in the 18.09 stable release. Dropping them
now would also result in less maintanance in updating them.
The death dates can be seen on both these links:

- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PHP#Release_history
MySQL Native Driver was implemented by PHP back in 5.3.0 and has been
default in most distributions for a very long time.
The option was added in 41cd4f2459 and I
don't see any reason why it would default to false.

* substitute(): --subst-var was silently coercing to "" if the variable does not exist.
* libffi: simplify using `checkInputs`

* curl: 7.60.0 -> 7.61.0
* gvfs: make tests run, but disable
* ilmbase: disable tests on i686. Spooky!
* mdds: fix tests
* git: disable checks as tests are run in installcheck
* ruby: disable tests
* libcommuni: disable checks as tests are run in installcheck
* librdf: make tests run, but disable
* neon, neon_0_29: make tests run, but disable
* pciutils: 3.6.0 -> 3.6.1
Semi-automatic update generated by https://github.com/ryantm/nixpkgs-update tools. This update was made based on information from https://repology.org/metapackage/pciutils/versions.
* mesa: more include fixes
mostly from void-linux (thanks!)
* npth: 1.5 -> 1.6
minor bump
* boost167: Add lockfree next_prior patch
* stdenv: cleanup darwin bootstrapping
Also gets rid of the full python and some of it's dependencies in the
stdenv build closure.
* Revert "pciutils: use standardized equivalent for canonicalize_file_name"
This reverts commit f8db20fb3a.
Patching should no longer be needed with 3.6.1.
* binutils-wrapper: Try to avoid adding unnecessary -L flags

* libffi: don't check on darwin
libffi usages in stdenv broken darwin. We need to disable doCheck for that case.
* "rm $out/share/icons/hicolor/icon-theme.cache" -> hicolor-icon-theme setup-hook
* python.pkgs.pytest: setupHook to prevent creation of .pytest-cache folder, fixes#40273
When `py.test` was run with a folder as argument, it would not only
search for tests in that folder, but also create a .pytest-cache folder.
Not only is this state we don't want, but it was also causing
collisions.
* parity-ui: fix after merge
* python.pkgs.pytest-flake8: disable test, fix build
* Revert "meson: 0.46.1 -> 0.47.0"
With meson 0.47.0 (or 0.47.1, or git)
things are very wrong re:rpath handling
resulting in at best missing libs but
even corrupt binaries :(.
When we run patchelf it masks the problem
by removing obviously busted paths.
Which is probably why this wasn't noticed immediately.
Unfortunately the binary already
has a long series of paths scribbled
in a space intended for a much smaller string;
in my testing it was something like
lengths were 67 with 300+ written to it.
I think we've reported the relevant issues upstream,
but unfortunately it appears our patches
are what introduces the overwrite/corruption
(by no longer being correct in what they assume)
This doesn't look so bad to fix but it's
not something I can spend more time on
at the moment.
--
Interestingly the overwritten string data
(because it is scribbled past the bounds)
remains in the binary and is why we're suddenly
seeing unexpected references in various builds
-- notably this is is the reason we're
seeing the "extra-utils" breakage
that entirely crippled NixOS on master
(and probably on staging before?).
Fixes#43650.
This reverts commit 305ac4dade.
