This reverts commit 1daf2e26d2, reversing
changes made to c0c50dfcb7.
It seems this is what has been causing all the reliability problems
on Hydra. I'm currently unable to find why it happens, so I'm forced
to revert the update for now. Discussion: #22874.
This reverts commit 32a4081a7f.
After ec985c8ff the apps linked to 2.11 fontconfig run fine on nixos
with older /etc/fonts/, but the other way won't work.
Unfortunately, I see no easy work-around ATM.
Since fontconfig-2.11 the xml:space attribute makes it reject
/etc/fonts/fonts.conf, so it renders garbage and eats lots of CPU.
To use anything linked to fontconfig-2.11 you need to have this patch
applied to your running NixOS. That's why I'm pushing it to master
before the fontconfig update (as soon as I found and tested the fix).
Conflicts (a little tricky, I did some cleanup of interacting changes):
pkgs/development/compilers/llvm/default.nix
pkgs/development/libraries/libpng/default.nix
pkgs/tools/package-management/nixops/default.nix
pkgs/top-level/all-packages.nix
Otherwise the user won't be able to override anything specified in
NixOS' /etc/fonts/conf.d, since ~/.config/fontconfig is included from
upstream fonts/conf.5/50-user.conf.
This removes the need to set $FONTCONFIG_FILE, which is especially
important when using Nixpkgs binaries on non-NixOS systems.
See also 9301524c50. This is a
regression caused by a change in fontconfig's configure switches.
I was trying to cross compile SDL. Many dependencies work, but I ended seeing
libX11 not ready for cross compilation. Other xorg libraries cross-compile
well. libX11 may need a small patch. The problem is the usual "configure test
cannot be run in cross compilation", so the configure script halts.
I made the pkgconfig expression always return buildDrv, as I think it rarely
will be needed as buildInput. So to avoid rewriting all its mentions to use
it as buildNativeInput, I prefered this small change.

configuration directory so that users on other distributions don't
need to set $FONTCONFIG_FILE (NIXPKGS-29). Also use
/var/cache/fontconfig for the cache to prevent programs run by root
from writing into the Nix store.

support.
* New function makeFontsConf to generate a fontconfig configuration
file. Moved from NixOS.
* dot2pdf: use makeFontsConf to generate a fonts.conf containing just
the Ghostscript fonts (see NIXPKGS-29).
* dot2pdf: generate PDF directly, don't go through PS. Note that this
and using fontconfig changes the interpretation of "fontname"
attributes in dot graphs.

* Make builders unexecutable by removing the hash-bang line and
execute permission.
* Convert calls to `derivation' to `mkDerivation'.
* Remove `system' and `stdenv' attributes from calls to
`mkDerivation'. These transformations were all done automatically,
so it is quite possible I broke stuff.
* Put the `mkDerivation' function in stdenv/generic.

builders for typical Autoconf-style to be much shorten, e.g.,
. $stdenv/setup
genericBuild
The generic builder does lots of stuff automatically:
- Unpacks source archives specified by $src or $srcs (it knows about
gzip, bzip2, tar, zip, and unpacked source trees).
- Determines the source tree.
- Applies patches specified by $patches.
- Fixes libtool not to search for libraries in /lib etc.
- Runs `configure'.
- Runs `make'.
- Runs `make install'.
- Strips debug information from static libraries.
- Writes nested log information (in the format accepted by
`log2xml').
There are also lots of hooks and variables to customise the generic
builder. See `stdenv/generic/docs.txt'.
* Adapted the base packages (i.e., the ones used by stdenv) to use the
generic builder.
* We now use `curl' instead of `wget' to download files in `fetchurl'.
* Neither `curl' nor `wget' are part of stdenv. We shouldn't
encourage people to download stuff in builders (impure!).
* Updated some packages.
* `buildinputs' is now `buildInputs' (but the old name also works).
* `findInputs' in the setup script now prevents inputs from being
processed multiple times (which could happen, e.g., if an input was
a propagated input of several other inputs; this caused the size
variables like $PATH to blow up exponentially in the worst case).
* Patched GNU Make to write nested log information in the format
accepted by `log2xml'. Also, prior to writing the build command,
Make now writes a line `building X' to indicate what is being
built. This is unfortunately often obscured by the gigantic tool
invocations in many Makefiles. The actual build commands are marked
`unimportant' so that they don't clutter pages generated by
`log2html'.
