I'm unsure about
- is it ok to apply this patch globally, or should it be overridden for tigervnc only?
- how many rebuilds it triggers
- whether it was neccessary to update to latest dev version (seems to work)
The bug report indicates that others distros just includes this patch (?)
Cf. #1498. vcunat: the patch should be usable globally, as e.g. Arch does it.
Using autoreconfHook doesn't work for me, maybe --force is bad for it.
applyAndFun has a bug resulting in the same arg beeing added more than
once when using a concatenating merge function for the attr set.
I've tried giving the function a name "overridableDelayableArgs" which
resembles its usage much more.
important refactoring:
applyAndFun had .fun and .funMerge only when passing the merge
function lib.mergeOrApply
composableDerivation {
initial = {
...
};
}
to
overridableDelayableArgs has always .replace and .merge
composableDerivation {} {
...
}
