To make updating large attribute sets faster, the update scripts
are now run in parallel.
Please note the following changes in semantics:
- The string passed to updateScript needs to be a path to an executable file.
- The updateScript can also be a list: the tail elements will then be passed
to the head as command line arguments.
* Print Dependency failures as well as direct failures and update to Python3
some package fail due to non-exposed dependencies and would thus not appear in the list, for example gcj
* hydra-eval-failures: simpler hashbang
Based on https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/34842, the
nix-instantiate output was pretty-printed and the validity of the github handles
manually verified, by automatically checking whether the user handles exist on
github (https://github.com/userhandle, status 200 or 404).
Each handle under 5 characters was manually checked (because the collision
probability with non-maintainer accounts is high), each missing entry was
manually researched.
The script used is kept in `maintainers/scripts` as an example of how to work
with the mainainers list through nix’ JSON interface.
Lot of my GNOME packages have several legacy aliases,
which causes them to be updated multiple times.
This patch uses lib.unique to remove the duplicates.
This commit introduces two new features:
1. specify with --target whether major, minor or patch updates should be made
2. use --commit to create commits for each of the updates
- Gucharmap no longer follow the GNOME major versioning.
- Gucharmap no longer includes Unicode data. Instead the data should be
downloaded from unicode.org.
* gnome3: only maintain single GNOME 3 package set
GNOME 3 was split into 3.10 and 3.12 in #2694. Unfortunately, we barely have the resources
to update a single version of GNOME. Maintaining multiple versions just does not make sense.
Additionally, it makes viewing history using most Git tools bothersome.
This commit renames `pkgs/desktops/gnome-3/3.24` to `pkgs/desktops/gnome-3`, removes
the config variable for choosing packageset (`environment.gnome3.packageSet`), updates
the hint in maintainer script, and removes the `gnome3_24` derivation from `all-packages.nix`.
Closes: #29329
* maintainers/scripts/gnome: Use fixed GNOME 3 directory
Since we now allow only a single GNOME 3 package set, specifying
the working directory is not necessary.
This commit sets the directory to `pkgs/desktops/gnome-3`.
This should avoid the 28 lines of unnecessary spam about fetching stdenv
and bash:

(From https://travis-ci.org/NixOS/nixpkgs/jobs/264390932)
This script determines whether there is an update available for the
package and if so, updates the version and sha256 attributes.
This only works for packages that have their own expression, and `pname`
and `sha256` attribute.
