The `overrideScope` bound by `makeScope` (via special `callPackage`)
took an override in the form `super: self { … }`. But this is
dangerously close to the `self: super { … }` form used by *everything*
else, even other definitions of `overrideScope`! Since that
implementation did not even share any code either until I changed it
recently in 3cf43547f4, this inconsistency
is almost certainly an oversight and not intentional.
Unfortunately, just as the inconstency is hard to debug if one just
assumes the conventional order, any sudden fix would break existing
overrides in the same hard-to-debug way. So instead of changing the
definition a new `overrideScope'` with the conventional order is added,
and old `overrideScope` deprecated with a warning saying to use
`overrideScope'` instead. That will hopefully get people to stop using
`overrideScope`, freeing our hand to change or remove it in the future.
This package providesa completion input method for faster typing.

Detailed instructions how to activate this IBus engine on your desktop
can be found in the upstream docs: https://mike-fabian.github.io/ibus-typing-booster/documentation.html
A simple VM with the Gnome3 desktop and activated `ibus' looks like
this:
```nix
{
emojipicker = { pkgs, ... }: {
services.xserver = {
enable = true;
desktopManager.gnome3.enable = true;
desktopManager.xterm.enable = false;
};
users.extraUsers.vm = {
password = "vm";
isNormalUser = true;
};
i18n.inputMethod.ibus.engines = [
pkgs.ibus-engines.typing-booster
];
i18n.inputMethod.enabled = "ibus";
virtualisation.memorySize = 2048;
};
}
```

This aims to make the `weechat` package even more configurable. It
allows to specify scripts and commands using the `configure` function
inside a `weechat.override` expression.
The package can be configured like this:
```
with import <nixpkgs> { };
weechat.override {
plugins = { availablePlugins, ... }: {
plugins = builtins.attrValues availablePlugins;
init = ''
/set foo bar
/server add freenode chat.freenode.org
'';
scripts = [ "/path/to/script.py" ];
};
}
```
All commands are passed to `weechat --run-command "/set foo bar;/server ..."`.
The `plugins' attribute is not necessarily required anymore, if it's
sufficient to add `init' commands, the `plugins' will be
`builtins.attrValues availablePlugins' by default.
Additionally the result contains `weechat` and `weechat-headless`
(introduced in WeeChat 2.1) now.
Since #44522 it's possible to specify custom certificates for the Citrix
receiver. As it took me some time to create a proper setup Citrix can
behave fairly unexpected.
I mostly covered two aspects:
* Don't install Citrix with `nix run`: when `citrix.desktop` is linked
to $XDG_CONFIG_DIRS, it's possible to start a session directly from the
browser when loading `.ica` files which makes the usage *way* easier.
* It's possible to add custom certificates using the Citrix wrapper. A
new store path with the original derivation and the certificates will be
created and therefore no rebuild of the package is needed when adding
new certs.
This removes some stale code that was a no-op for some time and adds
some docs/examples to help people with explicitly and consistently
choosing versions of some emacs packages (to help with problems
similar to #27083).
Also add a wrapper generator that allows adding the plugins back
conveniently and corresponding documentation in the package notes
section of the nixpkgs manual.
So that helper scripts can be easily sourced in interactive shell
configuration. `autojump` package was already present and had the same
requirements for findind a `share` folders, so I took an inspiration
there.
I beleive this is a better alternative to:
- https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/25080
- https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/27058
Replacing `$out/share/shell` with `$bin/share/fzf` was necessary to
prevent dependency loop in produced derivations.
This gives some basics on configuring Emacs within Nix. The
configuration is fairly long just to give a good idea of what’s going
on. I can trim out some of it if it’s not necessary. Note that there
is already a section for Emacs in the NixOS manual. However, this is
aimed at avoiding using modules altogether to make things easier for
non-NixOS users. This configuration should work on NixOS anyway,
however.
