* Use stdenv.mkDerivation instead of composableDerivation.
stdenv.mkDerivation is the current coding standard and is easier to
read (IMHO).
* Remove the 'parportSupport' flag because it doesn't do anything.
(Parallel port support is still enabled.)
* Remove unneeded --disable-dependency-tracking flag to ./configure; our
default builder does that already.
* Fix documentation build. But it is still disabled (by default),
because texLive is such a big dependency. There is always the man
page.
* Update 'meta' attributes
On darwin, not doing this means the configure script uses a hard-coded
/bin/sh for its echo tests, resulting in ECHO_N and ECHO_C settings in
icu-config which are incorrect for the stdenv.shell which it is actually
uses to run.
Re-apply the build fix from <https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/2089>,
because apparently the underlying issue has not been fixed.
According to <https://github.com/elm-lang/Elm/issues/384>, Elm's release
archive comes with a Setup.hs that cannot compile an Elm release. Duh!
Replacing the custom Setup.hs file with a dummy version fixes this issue.
On some versions of GHC, documentation is at, for example:
LIB/share/doc/
In others, it is at:
LIB/share/doc/x86_64-darwin-ghc7.6.3/
This change will pick up documentation first from the second location, then
from the first.
Verified on OS X 10.9.2 to build and check, dependents build fine too.
@vcunat enabled doCheck as it works for him on x86_64-linux;
also did style nitpick modification, and changed platforms to .all
according to the homepage http://www.swig.org/compat.html
The file $out/mkspecs/qconfig.pri contains a list of all include /
library paths used during the build, including build-time-only
packages like GDB and Ruby. So get rid of those.
Building the tests (which as far as I can tell we don't even run)
makes the build take > 19 GiB of disk space, which is a bit
excessive. Without the tests, it takes 2.6 GiB.
