Includes some bugfixes/cleanups to the scripts and packaging, a run of the
updater, a bump of the version, an upgrade to the newer cargo fetcher in #79975,
and gets the web assembly portion to compile successfully.
Fixes #75863
Changes the default fetcher in the Rust Platform to be the newer
`fetchCargoTarball`, and changes every application using the current default to
instead opt out.
This commit does not change any hashes or cause any rebuilds. Once integrated,
we will start deleting the opt-outs and recomputing hashes.
See #79975 for details.
Idea shamelessly stolen from 4e60b0efae.
I realized that I don't really know anymore where I'm listed as maintainer and what
I'm actually (co)-maintaining which means that I can't proactively take
care of packages I officially maintain.
As I don't have the time, energy and motivation to take care of stuff I
was interested in 1 or 2 years ago (or packaged for someone else in the
past), I decided that I make this explicit by removing myself from several
packages and adding myself in some other stuff I'm now interested in.
I've seen it several times now that people remove themselves from a
package without removing the package if it's unmaintained after that
which is why I figured that it's fine in my case as the affected pkgs
are rather low-prio and were pretty easy to maintain.
A recent upgrade of cargo-vendor changed its output slightly, which
broke all cargoSha256 hashes in nixpkgs.
See https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/60668 for more information.
Since then, a few hashes have been fixed in master by hand, but there
were a lot still to do, so I did all of the ones left over with some
scripts I wrote.
The one hash I wasn’t able to update was habitat's, because it’s
currently broken and the build doesn’t get far enough to produce a
hash anyway.
The biggest benefit is that we no longer have to update the registry
package. This means that just about any cargo package can be built by
nix. No longer does `cargo update` need to be feared because it will
update to packages newer then what is available in nixpkgs.
Instead of fetching the cargo registry this bundles all the source code
into a "vendor/" folder.
This also uses the new --frozen and --locked flags which is nice.
Currently cargo-vendor only provides binaries for Linux and
macOS 64-bit. This can be solved by building it for the other
architectures and uploading it somewhere (like the NixOS cache).
This also has the downside that it requires a change to everyone's deps
hash. And if the old one is used because it was cached it will fail to
build as it will attempt to use the old version. For this reason the
attribute has been renamed to `cargoSha256`.
