Most of the skaware packages already build just fine with pkgsStatic,
however the wrapper scripts for execline and stdnotify-wrapper needed
the `-lskarlib` argument to go at the end.
`utmps` and `nsss` still fail with this error:
```
exec ./tools/install.sh -D -m 600 utmps-utmpd /bin/utmps-utmpd
/build/utmps-0.0.3.1/tools/install.sh: line 48: can't create /bin/utmps-utmpd.tmp.479: Permission denied
make: *** [Makefile:121: /bin/utmps-utmpd] Error 1
```
Hello,
New versions of all the skarnet.org packages are available.
This is mostly a bugfix release (there was an installation bug in
some circumstances with shared libraries) but some packages, notably
execline and s6, have new, useful features.
The new versions are the following:
skalibs-2.9.2.0
nsss-0.0.2.2
utmps-0.0.3.2
execline-2.6.0.0
s6-2.9.1.0
s6-rc-0.5.1.2
s6-linux-init-1.0.4.0
s6-dns-2.3.2.0
s6-networking-2.3.1.2
s6-portable-utils-2.2.2.2
s6-linux-utils-2.5.1.2
mdevd-0.1.1.2
bcnm-0.0.1.0
Here are details for the packages that have more than bugfixes:
* skalibs-2.9.2.0
---------------
- New header: skalibs/bigkv.h. It's a set of functions allowing
efficient lookups in a large set of strings (typically read from the
command line or the environment).
https://skarnet.org/software/skalibs/
git://git.skarnet.org/skalibs
* execline-2.6.0.0
----------------
- It's a major release because an API has been modified: dollarat.
Beforehand, dollarat's -0 option would always prevail over any -d
option. Now, dollarat has its conflicting -0 and -d options handled
in the conventional way, with rightmost priority.
- The runblock program now accepts a command line prefix, which is
given as runblock's own command line. This allows blocks to serve as
arguments to a new command, instead of having to be full command lines
by themselves.
- New binary: posix-umask.
- The former "cd" program is now named "execline-cd" and the former
"umask" program is named "execline-umask". When the=20
--enable-pedantic-posix
option is not given at configure time, "cd" and "umask" are symbolic
links created at installation time and pointing to execline-cd and
execline-umask respectively. When the --enable-pedantic-posix option is
given, the symbolic links point to posix-cd and posix-umask instead.
- With posix-cd and posix-umask (and the changes to wait done in the
previous version), execline is now fully POSIX-compliant when built with
the --enable-pedantic-posix option. This will certainly, without the
slightest hint of a doubt, change distributions' attitudes about it.
https://skarnet.org/software/execline/
git://git.skarnet.org/execline
* s6-2.9.1.0
----------
- A new '?' directive has been added to s6-log. It behaves exactly like
'!', except that it spawns the given processor with /bin/sh as an
interpreter instead of execlineb.
- execline support is now optional: it can be disabled by specifying
--disable-execline at configure time. Some functionality is unavailable
when execline support is disabled:
* s6-log's '!' directive
* s6-notifyoncheck's -c option
* s6-ipcserver-access's support for 'exec' directives in a ruleset
- A new -X option has been added to s6-svscan, to specify a descriptor
that will be passed as stderr to a service spawned by this s6-svscan and
named s6-svscan-log. This is used in the new s6-linux-init, to avoid
needing to hardcode the /dev/console name for the catch-all logger's
standard error.
- On systems that define SIGPWR and SIGWINCH, s6-svscan -s now diverts
those signals. This allows powerfail and kbrequest events to be handled
when s6-svscan runs as process 1.
https://skarnet.org/software/s6/
git://git.skarnet.org/s6
* s6-linux-init-1.0.4.0
---------------------
- New options have been added to s6-linux-init-maker: to support
running s6-linux-init without a catch-all logger, and to support running
it in a container.
- s6-linux-init-maker now adds a SIGPWR handler to the default image:
on receipt of a SIGPWR, the system's shutdown procedure is triggered.
- s6-linux-init now handles kbrequest, which triggers a SIGWINCH in
init when a special, configurable set of keys is pressed. By default,
no SIGWINCH handler is declared in the image, and no set of keys is
bound to kbrequest.
https://skarnet.org/software/s6-linux-init/
git://git.skarnet.org/s6-linux-init
* s6-dns-2.3.2.0
--------------
- New library: libdcache, implementing a clean cache structure
to contain DNS data. It's still not used at the moment.
https://skarnet.org/software/s6-dns/
git://git.skarnet.org/s6-dns
* bcnm-0.0.1.0
------------
- First numbered release, because the Ad=C3=A9lie Linux distribution,
which uses libwpactrl, needs an official release instead of pulling
from git.
- libwpactrl is a set of C functions helping control a wpa_supplicant
process.
- bcnm-waitif is a binary that waits for network interface state
events such as appearance/disappearance, up/down, running/not-running.
It is useful to avoid race conditions during a boot sequence, for
instance.

This reverts commit a50653295d.
The reasons cited were “debugging”, in which case
you can just add the attribute to `buildSkawarePackage`
and “customizing”, which is still possible with
a normal `overrideDerivation`.
The patch removed `outputs` for some reason
(possible oversight), so building nsss failed.
Plus lots of complexity (e.g. don’t forget to add new
arguments to `removeAttrs` otherwise there’s a bug now).
The build is currently broken due to failure to build `darcs` to fetch the src
package. The homepage is already their GitHub repo, and it appears to be the
active src of development anyways. See #83718
I came across this while debugging this failure:
https://hydra.nixos.org/build/115510612
Note that the `application` dependency *does* succeed on Hydra, because it's
already on local disk in Hydra's store, but I cannot rebuild locally because it
has prefer local builds.
https://hydra.nixos.org/build/115512559
This package is not reproducible on 20.03 or buildable outside of Hydra, so I
intend to backport the fix.
CC @NixOS/nixos-release-managers
ZHF: #80379
* alacritty now has its own org, so I changed the URLs to point there
* updated the description to match upstream's description
* formatted with nixpkgs-format
it's tricky to enable in nghttp2's default build, however, because it needs
to be usable by curl, a very core nix package, and we get cyclical
dependencies if we add python to its requirements. having it available as
a separate build is better than nothing, though.
This reverts commit 5e8545e723.
It breaks eval:
attribute 'rev' missing, at /var/lib/ofborg/checkout/repo/38dca4e3aa6bca43ea96d2fcc04e8229/mr-est/eval-0-gleber.ewr1.nix.ci/pkgs/top-level/make-tarball.nix:106:39
which was deprecated in 2018 and is now gone for good. I guess many
won’t notice because the nix-cache kept the files around?
This fetches the patches from github. Unfortunately it seems that the
sha256 hashes (calculated with `nix-prefetch-url`) have been modified.
Alternatively, if someone has the old patches around they could arguably
be added to `tarballs.nixos.org` (it seems they are not there right
now).

cargo-asm hasn't seen any new releases since 2018 (and even then
it was spotty). But there have been improvements since then, so
switch to dated releases that use a working git commit.

Upgrades Hydra to the latest master/flake branch. To perform this
upgrade, it's needed to do a non-trivial db-migration which provides a
massive performance-improvement[1].
The basic ideas behind multi-step upgrades of services between NixOS versions
have been gathered already[2]. For further context it's recommended to
read this first.
Basically, the following steps are needed:
* Upgrade to a non-breaking version of Hydra with the db-changes
(columns are still nullable here). If `system.stateVersion` is set to
something older than 20.03, the package will be selected
automatically, otherwise `pkgs.hydra-migration` needs to be used.
* Run `hydra-backfill-ids` on the server.
* Deploy either `pkgs.hydra-unstable` (for Hydra master) or
`pkgs.hydra-flakes` (for flakes-support) to activate the optimization.
The steps are also documented in the release-notes and in the module
using `warnings`.
`pkgs.hydra` has been removed as latest Hydra doesn't compile with
`pkgs.nixStable` and to ensure a graceful migration using the newly
introduced packages.
To verify the approach, a simple vm-test has been added which verifies
the migration steps.

Because libshout 2.4.2 and newer seem to break streaming in mixxx, build
it with 2.4.1 instead.
This actually fixes the problem.

As it turns out Darwin does most of the things differently then "normal"
systems. They are using a different shared library extension and require
an obscure commandline parameter that has to be added to every build
system out there. That issue seems to be with clang on Darwin as on
Linux that flag isn't required to build the very same tests (when using
clang).
After adjusting these two details the tests are running fine on the
darwin box that I was able to obtain.
