Commit 03353ce6ff ("system-config-printer: 1.3.12 -> 1 5.7")
forgot to update the hash. So since that commit we actually continued to
use the old version (1.3.12) because of the NixOS tarball cache...
The new version prints some warnings on startup:
/nix/store/HASH-system-config-printer-1.5.7/share/system-config-printer/system-config-printer.py:32: \
PyGIWarning: Polkit was imported without specifying a version first. \
Use gi.require_version('Polkit', '1.0') before import to ensure that the right version gets loaded.
from gi.repository import Polkit
...and similar errors for GdkPixbuf, Gdk, Gtk and Notify. These warnings
are already fixed upstream and will be part of the next release.
Implementation details:
* The new version needs python3.
* Remove unneeded, and python3 incompatible, 'notify' dependency.
system-config-printer > 1.3.12 replaced it with GOBject introspection
bindings to libnotify (from gi.repository import Notify).
* Add gtk3, gdk_pixbuf, pango, atk, libnotify as needed (for gobject
introspection).
* A new --with-udevdir configure option is used to prevent the
installer from trying to install stuff to "/rules.d" (yes, the root).
* Get pycups from the passed pythonPackages set (fixes loading of
python cups module).
* Use pygobject3 instead of pygobject, as needed.
* Use dbus from the passed pythonPackages attrset instead of
pythonDBus, so we get a python3 compatible module that loads
successfully.
* Python requests2 modules is required.
Our coreutils now uses single-binary-build mode where, by default,
simple shebang scripts are used for all the binaries. That doesn't work
e.g. with the Linux unpacker which only handles standard binaries and
symlinks. Let's use the symlinked mode instead for boostrapping.
This does NOT change any stdenv hashes.
I only tested the case most important to me:
$ nix-build pkgs/top-level/release.nix -A stdenvBootstrapTools.x86_64-linux.test
Removed the patches which were specific to 4.3, and redundant configure flags
The darwin specific utmp patch seems to have been accepted too, with
`u->ut_time = now` the default.
In line with the Nixpkgs manual.
A mechanical change, done with this command:
find pkgs -name "*.nix" | \
while read f; do \
sed -e 's/description\s*=\s*"\([a-z]\)/description = "\u\1/' -i "$f"; \
done
I manually skipped some:
* Descriptions starting with an abbreviation, a user name or package name
* Frequently generated expressions (haskell-packages.nix)
The service file refers to /usr/bin/... instead of a Nix store path.
Fix it.
The original fix was wrongly removed in commit 03353ce6ff
("system-config-printer: 1.3.12 -> 1 5.7"). We can remove this fixup on
the _next_ upstream release.
