The biggest benefit is that we no longer have to update the registry
package. This means that just about any cargo package can be built by
nix. No longer does `cargo update` need to be feared because it will
update to packages newer then what is available in nixpkgs.
Instead of fetching the cargo registry this bundles all the source code
into a "vendor/" folder.
This also uses the new --frozen and --locked flags which is nice.
Currently cargo-vendor only provides binaries for Linux and
macOS 64-bit. This can be solved by building it for the other
architectures and uploading it somewhere (like the NixOS cache).
This also has the downside that it requires a change to everyone's deps
hash. And if the old one is used because it was cached it will fail to
build as it will attempt to use the old version. For this reason the
attribute has been renamed to `cargoSha256`.

Unfortunately wlc 0.0.10 seems to be the cause for segfaults on sway,
way-cooler and orbment.
This will also build wlc with all optional packages (i.e. zlib,
valgrind and doxygen).
While the last wlc upgrade (05d79c03ec)
makes it possible to build sway 0.14.0 it also breaks the current build
of sway 0.13.0.
Unfortunately sway 0.14.0 segfaults on launch and I couldn't fix it yet
(there are multiple upstream issues as well). I'll overwrite the wlc
version for sway in order to have a usable version in nixpkgs for the
meantime.
By default, awesome will use "devel" as a version name
(or `git describe`). This has led to awesome always
showing "devel" for its version.
Some extensions depend on version information to figure
out what features they can use.
This change overrides the version for the build from the
derivations' `version` attribute.
GitHub does a redirect to https:// when you use http://
repology complains with:
“Homepage link "https://github.com/…" is dead (HTTP error 404) for more than a month.”
This will fix some of them (not all though)
