Next had a few issues with its packaging:
* the platform port was exposed in all-packages
And this is not useful for outside users.
It's now a local attribute in the next package.
* the platform port wasn't wrapped correctly
It appears that the lisp core was being wrapped,
when instead the actual gtk application that's
called within the lisp core had to be wrapped.
* codestyle/indentation
This commit adds a static adapter for ocaml packages and applies it to
pkgsStatic.ocaml-ng.
The adapter fixes build of ocaml itself with version <= 4.7 and also attempts
to fix builds of some packages.
From looking at
* https://hydra.nixos.org/build/107447356
it appears the subtest fails at this exact step.
OCR in the testing driver has been notoriously
flaky, so let's just match alice's user description.
This does have the downside of not verifying the
appearence of other user cards, which was an
issue with the greeter in the past.
This cuts down the dependency tree on some rust builds where a crate not
just exposes a binary but also a library. `$out/lib` contained a bunch
of extra support files that among other information carry linker flags
(including the full path to link-time dependencies). Worst case this led
to some binary outputs depending on the full build closure of rust
crates.
Moving all the `$out/lib` files to `$lib/lib` solves this nicely.
`lib` might be a bit weird here as they are most of the time just rlib
files (rust libraries). Those are essential only required during
compilation but they can also be shared objects (like with traditional
C-style packages). Which is why I went with `lib` for the new output.
One of the caveats we are running into here is that we do not (always)
know ahead of time of a crate produces just a library or just a binary.
Cargo allows for some ambiguity regarding whether or not a crate
provides one, two, … binaries and libraries as it's outputs. Ideally we
would be able to rely on the `crateType` entirely but so far that isn't
the case. More work on that area might show how difficult that actually
is.
This is a more sane default since we do not magically (without opt-in)
pull in binaries from `~/bin`. That is not really an expected behavior
for many users. Users that still want that behavior can now just flip
that switch.
This has the benefit of being able to override all the inputs to the
build where you were previously only able to override the entire package
set (if at all).
This PR is part of the networking.* namespace cleanup.
ssmtp used to be configured via `networking.defaultMailServer` which is
sort of misleading since it provides options only for ssmtp. Other
dumb mail relays like nullmailer have always been living under
services.
The intent of this PR is to align ssmtp's options with those of similar
services. Specifically, two renames have been done:
* Rename `networking.defaultMailHost` to `services.ssmtp`.
* Rename `directDelivery` to `enable` because this is what it basically does.
