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)
skalibs:
execline:
s6-dns:
s6-networking:
s6-portable-utils:
s6-rc:
s6:
The above software uses the target triplet from `cc -dumpmachine` as a
binary compatibility check. However, on darwin, the output includes the
darwin version number, which leads to build failures against a binary
skalibs package built a different version of darwin than the current
system.
Explicitly setting target ensures code can be compiled against a skalibs
binary built on a different version of darwin.
