This doesn't do anything. Building with includeEmail = true produces
the same set as includeEmail = false, and the substitute rule removes
a random dictionary index operation.
In [#100765] @vcunat pointed out that we could decouple cacert from the
NSS package to make it more rebuild friendly. Just rebuilding packages
that depend on NSS seems to be about ~100. Rebuilding all the packages
that depend on cacert is >9k as of this writing. This makes it much more
feasible to upgrade high-profile packages that are (rightfully) pedantic
on their NSS version like firefox and thunderbird.

The timezone dumps have switched to a "slim" format since 2020b.
This has broken various packages, including
- go 1.4 (used for bootstrapping)
- haskellPackages.tz
- libical
The "fat" format can still be generated, as this commit shows.
It seems to create files that are *mostly* the slim versions with
some more data attached.
I made a mistake merge. Reverting it in c778945806 undid the state
on master, but now I realize it crippled the git merge mechanism.
As the merge contained a mix of commits from `master..staging-next`
and other commits from `staging-next..staging`, it got the
`staging-next` branch into a state that was difficult to recover.
I reconstructed the "desired" state of staging-next tree by:
- checking out the last commit of the problematic range: 4effe769e2
- `git rebase -i --preserve-merges a8a018ddc0` - dropping the mistaken
merge commit and its revert from that range (while keeping
reapplication from 4effe769e2)
- merging the last unaffected staging-next commit (803ca85c20)
- fortunately no other commits have been pushed to staging-next yet
- applying a diff on staging-next to get it into that state
This reverts commit c778945806.
I believe this is exactly what brings the staging branch into
the right shape after the last merge from master (through staging-next);
otherwise part of staging changes would be lost
(due to being already reachable from master but reverted).
