Modify the set pattern to hint developers that the doInstallCheck
attribute of Python packages, specified by the doCheck argument of
buildPythonPackage and buildPythonApplication, defaults to true instead
of false.
Python 3.12 attempts to build with the _scproxy enabled even when building python3Minimal. Override the configure check to make sure it is disabled. Otherwise, the Darwin stdenv bootstrap will fail.
Configuring `pythonRelaxDeps` or `pythonRemoveDeps` does not require
adding `pythonRelaxDepsHook` into `nativeBuildInputs` anymore.

This only enables x86_64-unknown-freebsd, not any other FreeBSD, since I
do not have any other machines to tests on. If you're reading this, feel
free to try out other arches!
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/311767 improved build purity, but Python’s configure script checks the Darwin version to enable platform features. Replacing the check with a check for Darwin without the version allows the build to succeed again.
* Make use of libxcrypt conditional (documented inline)
* Patch use of uname to to not pull in some impure information
* Various cases where behavior is split out among operating systems are
now inclusive of FreeBSD
In the past I was very active with Python packaging.
For several years now I was hardly around as maintainer,
so it does not make sense I am listed as a maintainer for
these makes. Looking back, I should have removed myself
as maintainer already much longer ago. Anyway, better late
than never.
It's been a fun ride, and I do intend to occasionally contribute
to Nixpkgs, but not in the same way it once was.
Currently, nix-support/propagated-build-inputs is parsed by splitting on
a single space. This means that if this file contains multiple spaces
separating two paths, the build_inputs list will end up containing an
empty string.
Instead, call split() with no arguments, which splits on runs of
whitespace and also ignores whitespace at the beginning and end of the
string, eliminating the need for strip().
Now that we only visit each path once, a few things can be simplified.
We no longer have to keep a list of different dependency chains leading
to a package, since only one chain will ever be found. Also, the already
visited check also takes care of cycles, so the other cycle check can be
removed.
