The server is not verified over the git:// transfer protocol. If you
clone a repository over git://, you should check if the latest commit's
hash is correct.
On the other hand, https:// will always verify the server automatically,
using certificate authorities.
Use example package `zerobin` instead of `bepasty-server` which
is no longer part of python-packages.
This fixes the examples for current nixpkgs versions.
1. Use the same approach like in the overlay example:
Override `python` instead of `pythonPackages` so that
`python.pkgs` refers to the new package set like `pythonPackages`.
This also fixes a bug in the original example where
`pkgs.fetchgit` was not in scope.
Add an extra example to illustrate how to override just a
package set.
2. Fix mix-up between `super` and `self` in the explanation text.
Also, simplify the explanation.
This makes the command ‘nix-env -qa -f. --arg config '{skipAliases =
true;}'’ work in Nixpkgs.

- qtikz: use libsForQt5.callPackage
This ensures we get the right poppler.
- rewrites:
docbook5_xsl -> docbook_xsl_ns
docbook_xml_xslt -> docbook_xsl
diffpdf: fixup
This script is used to automatically fix issues within xml documentation
files.
The script is *for now* intended to be used ad-hoc, and the commits to
be examined.
A future discussion will define whether:
* This commit and scripts are kept.
* The script is extended for common use.
The biggest issue right now with the script is that it *could* in theory
destroy a valid space-less varlistentry.
The script could, in practical use, be changed and extended to normalize
some parts of the XML files, mainly:
* A common quoting style for attributes
* Fix-up some weird formatting automatically that xmlformat doesn't
catch
This fixes a regression introduced in 4b06383.

Relevant section: 9.5.2.3. How to install a compiler with libraries, hoogle and documentation indexes
Since version 5 `hoogle server`s --local flag solves the problem with links from
`http:` to `file:` URIs:
hoogle server --local -p 8080
As suggested in https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/39416#discussion_r183845745
the versioning attributes in `lib` should be consistent to
`nixos/version` which implicates the following changes:
* `lib.trivial.version` -> `lib.trivial.release`
* `lib.trivial.suffix` -> `lib.trivial.versionSuffix`
* `lib.nixpkgsVersion` -> `lib.version`
As `lib.nixpkgsVersion` is referenced several times in `NixOS/nixpkgs`,
`NixOS/nix` and probably several user's setups. As the rename will cause
a notable impact it's better to keep `lib.nixpkgsVersion` as alias with
a warning yielded by `builtins.trace`.
