`retroArchCores` is strange: it requires a global configuration on nixpkgs, as:
```nix
nixpkgs.config.retroarch = {
enableDolphin = true;
enableMGBA = true;
enableMAME = true;
};
```
To do so, we ended up declaring all available emulators on
`all-packages.nix`. Failing to do so would mean that the emulator
wouldn't be available.
However, there is a mechanism on nixpkgs that also works: overrides.
Overrides are similar on how other packages works, for example:
```nix
(retroarch.override { cores = with libretro; [ citra snes9x ]; });
```
So let's remove `retroArchCores` and leave the overrides mechanism
instead.
This changes the source from the (now archived) original antimicroX to a
fork that is actively maintained and includes new features like uinput
support for wayland.
Since upstream changed the executable name from antimicroX to
antimicrox, this also changes the name of the derivation and the file
names to work with Nix 2.4’s nix run and to be consistent. An alias for
antimicroX is added to ensure existing configurations will continue
working.
- Drop graalvm8 since it was removed by upstream
- Add update.sh script to make it easier to generate hashes for all
platforms
- Fix GraalPython, broken since #141825 (sorry)
- Small refactorings and fixes
This derivation was not updated since Jan 18, 2020. It doesn't
build on Hydra because it needs too much memory (~30GB). And no other
packages depend on it.
Also, this is a very complex package and really difficult to maintain.
It is a blocker for https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/141794, since
a recent bump of broke it.
`graalvm8-ce` is the replacement. It is much more up-to-date (`graalvm`
is on version 19.2.1, `graalvm8-ce` is on version 21.2.0), it is much
easier on Hydra (it uses the binary from Oracle).
I also deprecated `jvmci8` and `mx`. I am not sure if `graalvm8`
supplies them, but if something is missing we can always add it later to
`graalvm8-ce`.
The package doesn't run because of missing dependencies. I fixed these
but it still didn't work properly. (It complained that the searched page
was unexpectedly short, although according to strace it didn't even
connect anywhere.)
Upstream (https://gitlab.com/zerodogg/swec) did not see any commits in
the last 9 years, so I think we should just drop this package.
LinkChecker, which is also packaged seems like a good and working
alternative.
