This was simply undoing a hunk from
0008-Don-t-try-to-unmount-nix-or-nix-store.patch, so drop that one from
there and omit
0017-Fix-mount-option-x-initrd.mount-handling-35268-16.patch entirely.
These patches removed logic in the meson install phase invoking
`journalctl --update-catalog` and `systemd-hwdb update`, which would
mutate the running system, and obviously fails in the sandbox.
Upstream also knows this is a bad thing if you're not on the machine you
want to deploy to, so there's logic in there to not execute it when
DESTDIR isn't empty. In our case, it is - as we set --prefix instead for
other reasons, but by just setting DESTIDIR to "/", we can still trigger
these things to be skipped.
The patches removed some context from
0018-Install-default-configuration-into-out-share-factory.patch, which
we need to introduce there to make that patch still apply.
After patching, this produces exactly the same source code as in our
custom fork, but having the actual patches inlined inside nixpkgs makes
it easier to get rid of them.
In case more complicated rebasing is necessary, maintainers can
- Clone the upstream systemd/systemd[-stable] repo
- Checkout the current rev mentioned in src
- Apply the patches from this folder via `git am 00*.patch`
- Rebase the repo on top of a new version
- Export the patch series via `git format-patch $newVersion`
- Update the patches = [ … ] attribute (if necessary)
This is to fix a regression in upstream Racket packaging, the upstream
bug tracking this is here:
https://github.com/racket/racket/issues/3046
When the bug is fixed this workaround will be unnecessary.
systemd-tmpfiles will load all files in lexicographic order and ignores rules
for the same path in later files with a warning Since we apply the default rules
provided by systemd, we should load user-defines rules first so users have a
chance to override defaults.
