This reverts commit 32a4081a7f.
After ec985c8ff the apps linked to 2.11 fontconfig run fine on nixos
with older /etc/fonts/, but the other way won't work.
Unfortunately, I see no easy work-around ATM.
Since fontconfig-2.11 the xml:space attribute makes it reject
/etc/fonts/fonts.conf, so it renders garbage and eats lots of CPU.
To use anything linked to fontconfig-2.11 you need to have this patch
applied to your running NixOS. That's why I'm pushing it to master
before the fontconfig update (as soon as I found and tested the fix).
Conflicts (a little tricky, I did some cleanup of interacting changes):
pkgs/development/compilers/llvm/default.nix
pkgs/development/libraries/libpng/default.nix
pkgs/tools/package-management/nixops/default.nix
pkgs/top-level/all-packages.nix
Otherwise the user won't be able to override anything specified in
NixOS' /etc/fonts/conf.d, since ~/.config/fontconfig is included from
upstream fonts/conf.5/50-user.conf.
This removes the need to set $FONTCONFIG_FILE, which is especially
important when using Nixpkgs binaries on non-NixOS systems.
See also 9301524c50. This is a
regression caused by a change in fontconfig's configure switches.
I was trying to cross compile SDL. Many dependencies work, but I ended seeing
libX11 not ready for cross compilation. Other xorg libraries cross-compile
well. libX11 may need a small patch. The problem is the usual "configure test
cannot be run in cross compilation", so the configure script halts.
I made the pkgconfig expression always return buildDrv, as I think it rarely
will be needed as buildInput. So to avoid rewriting all its mentions to use
it as buildNativeInput, I prefered this small change.

configuration directory so that users on other distributions don't
need to set $FONTCONFIG_FILE (NIXPKGS-29). Also use
/var/cache/fontconfig for the cache to prevent programs run by root
from writing into the Nix store.

support.
* New function makeFontsConf to generate a fontconfig configuration
file. Moved from NixOS.
* dot2pdf: use makeFontsConf to generate a fonts.conf containing just
the Ghostscript fonts (see NIXPKGS-29).
* dot2pdf: generate PDF directly, don't go through PS. Note that this
and using fontconfig changes the interpretation of "fontname"
attributes in dot graphs.

* Make builders unexecutable by removing the hash-bang line and
execute permission.
* Convert calls to `derivation' to `mkDerivation'.
* Remove `system' and `stdenv' attributes from calls to
`mkDerivation'. These transformations were all done automatically,
so it is quite possible I broke stuff.
* Put the `mkDerivation' function in stdenv/generic.

builders for typical Autoconf-style to be much shorten, e.g.,
. $stdenv/setup
genericBuild
The generic builder does lots of stuff automatically:
- Unpacks source archives specified by $src or $srcs (it knows about
gzip, bzip2, tar, zip, and unpacked source trees).
- Determines the source tree.
- Applies patches specified by $patches.
- Fixes libtool not to search for libraries in /lib etc.
- Runs `configure'.
- Runs `make'.
- Runs `make install'.
- Strips debug information from static libraries.
- Writes nested log information (in the format accepted by
`log2xml').
There are also lots of hooks and variables to customise the generic
builder. See `stdenv/generic/docs.txt'.
* Adapted the base packages (i.e., the ones used by stdenv) to use the
generic builder.
* We now use `curl' instead of `wget' to download files in `fetchurl'.
* Neither `curl' nor `wget' are part of stdenv. We shouldn't
encourage people to download stuff in builders (impure!).
* Updated some packages.
* `buildinputs' is now `buildInputs' (but the old name also works).
* `findInputs' in the setup script now prevents inputs from being
processed multiple times (which could happen, e.g., if an input was
a propagated input of several other inputs; this caused the size
variables like $PATH to blow up exponentially in the worst case).
* Patched GNU Make to write nested log information in the format
accepted by `log2xml'. Also, prior to writing the build command,
Make now writes a line `building X' to indicate what is being
built. This is unfortunately often obscured by the gigantic tool
invocations in many Makefiles. The actual build commands are marked
`unimportant' so that they don't clutter pages generated by
`log2html'.
