I wouldn't be able to say exactly why this is the case, but with the
flags that enableDebugging adds to the gnucash derivation, the build
fails. The patch added fixes the warning that causes the build to fail
and makes enableDebugging gnucash work.
The glibc patch is no longer needed, as it's included in 4.6.
This release also includes 888676eb31,
which allows building gnucash as (enableDebugging gnucash) using nix.
The GNU Cash package clearly *wants* to be able to use the libdbi
backends, since it pulls them in as dependencies. However, you can only
open xml formatted GNU cash files.
The CMake scripts hard-code the DVD path to be basically
<PATH_OF_LIBDBI>/dbd. However GNU Cash does check the environment
variable GNC_DBD_DIR, so I set that environment variable in the wrapper
script.
With this change, you should be able to e.g. "Save As" in the sqlite
format.
Fixes issue #57445
Naive concatenation of $LD_LIBRARY_PATH can result in an empty
colon-delimited segment; this tells glibc to load libraries from the
current directory, which is definitely wrong, and may be a security
vulnerability if the current directory is untrusted. (See #67234, for
example.) Fix this throughout the tree.

The test suite was broken by the GLib 2.46.0 update. If anyone finds a
patch that remedies these issues for 2.4.x, please check it in!
Otherwise, we'll eventually update our default version to 2.6.x, I
suppose.
Closes https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/11084.
(My OCD kicked in today...)
Remove repeated package names, capitalize first word, remove trailing
periods and move overlong descriptions to longDescription.
I also simplified some descriptions as well, when they were particularly
long or technical, often based on Arch Linux' package descriptions.
I've tried to stay away from generated expressions (and I think I
succeeded).
Some specifics worth mentioning:
* cron, has "Vixie Cron" in its description. The "Vixie" part is not
mentioned anywhere else. I kept it in a parenthesis at the end of the
description.
* ctags description started with "Exuberant Ctags ...", and the
"exuberant" part is not mentioned elsewhere. Kept it in a parenthesis
at the end of description.
* nix has the description "The Nix Deployment System". Since that
doesn't really say much what it is/does (especially after removing
the package name!), I changed that to "Powerful package manager that
makes package management reliable and reproducible" (borrowed from
nixos.org).
* Tons of "GNU Foo, Foo is a [the important bits]" descriptions
is changed to just [the important bits]. If the package name doesn't
contain GNU I don't think it's needed to say it in the description
either.
This requires recent versions of aqbanking and gwenhywfar:

It seems as if the developers have changed their version numbering
scheme in 2012 and have only released versions with the "beta" suffix
since then.
