It was previously referencing `$bin`, but this package no longer produces a
`bin` output, just `out` and `share`. Updated to make the comparison check a bit
more robust.
Also updated to avoid direct dependency on the `$src` directory out of the nix
store, instead using the processed src setup in the unpackPhase. This provides a
cleaner abstraction between the build/install phase and the input src phase, and
avoids an unnecessary dependency on whether the source disted tarball comes from
`fetchFromGitHub` (in which case it's an unpacked directory) or something like
`fetchurl`. In either case, stdenv is responsible for processing the input `src`
and setting up a clean build dir for us, so we should use that.
This produces an equivalent directory tree, except that the vim plugin is no
longer broken.
Most VM tests have been migrated to use the python test driver
(introduced in #71684), the migration is tracked in #72828 (which also
thankfully uncovered and fixed many currently broken tests)
While increasing the acceptance and adoption of NixOS integration tests
by using a more popular language, there was also nobody willing to do
larger refactors in the currently very convoluted test infrastructure.
We plan to remove the perl infrastructure between the 20.03 and 20.09
release, to be able to do these refactorings.
Some people might be using Perl tests in their internal CI, so print a
warning for 20.03, and give users time to move to the python testing
infrastructure.
Package is marked as broken for >2 years and used a fairly old
snapshot from the gcc7-branch, so I fairly doubt that this is
somewhere used (and is also pretty misleading as you don't expect a
random snapshot from gcc7 at `pkgs.gcc-snapshot`).
with firefox 64 being the latest version, and the removal of
"tor-browser/icecat-like" variants, we can greatly simplify the common
firefox derivation.
firefoxPackages.firefox-esr-52 was removed as it's an unsupported ESR
with open security issues. If you need it because you need to run some
plugins not having been ported to WebExtensions API, import it from an
older nixpkgs checkout still containing it.
There's not really a reason to ship an unsupported ESR variant of
firefox, and if one really needs it, it's also possible to just checkout
an older version of nixpkgs.
