Upstream moved build scripts to buildconfig folder and added some checks
for SDL locations. This breaks `sed` expression that was replacing library
paths. Fixes#60893
While it might be useful in some cases, there are too many caveats to be worth it.
When libredirect intercepts dlopen call and calls the original function, the dynamic
loader will use libredirect.so's DT_RUNPATH entry instead of the one from the ELF file
the dlopen call originated from. That means that when program tries to dlopen a library
that it expects to find on its RPATH, the call will fail.
This broke Sublime Text for just that reason.
Our gobject-introspection patches make the shared library paths absolute
in the GIR files. When building docs, the library is not yet installed,
though, so we need to replace the absolute path with a local one during build.
Previously we used LD_PRELOAD to load libredirect and rewrite the installed paths
to ones in the build directory. That was unnecessary complicated and many people
spent whole night trying to figure out why it breaks some programs.
Using a symlink from the installed location to the build directory fixes
the issue as well, while having much less moving parts, thus being easier to grasp.
The symlink will be overridden during installation.
* frei0r-plugins: enable on Darwin
Upstream support Darwin platform
+ brew formula for this is pretty straightforward
* frei0r: Darwin dlopen will look for *.dylib
Especially as a new user it is a much better experience to receive a
proper help response to `-h`. Currently passing `-h` will cause some
runtime error with the `git remote` error help being shown. Not very
helpful.
It doesn't hurt to be a bit more user friendly in this case.
Newer versions of perf in Linux 5.1+ support disassembling and
annotating eBPF programs inside the kernel. In order to do this, it uses
libbfd's support for bpf disassembly. There are two parts: libopcodes
and libbfd.
The 'perf' build system seems to expect libopcodes/libbfd to go "hand in
hand" -- always together, if one or the other is installed. If the build
system detects libbfd is available, then an import of <dis-asm.h> is
performed, but this fails since it wasn't in the buildInput. Fixing this
should be an easy, backwards-compatible change.
Fixes#60891, allowing linuxPackages_testing.perf to build again
(currently kernel version 5.1.0-rc7).

The previous hash was generated on aarch64. Due to https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/60668 the hash is different on different platforms. I am updating to use the x86_64-linux hash to fix building on hydra.
