# prepareDerivationArgs tries to make writing configurable derivations easier
# example:
# prepareDerivationArgs {
# mergeAttrBy = {
# myScript = x : y : x ++ "\n" ++ y;
# };
# cfg = {
# readlineSupport = true;
# };
# flags = {
# readline = {
# set = {
# configureFlags = [ "--with-compiler=${compiler}" ];
# buildInputs = [ compiler ];
# pass = { inherit compiler; READLINE=1; };
# assertion = compiler.dllSupport;
# myScript = "foo";
# };
# unset = { configureFlags = ["--without-compiler"]; };
# };
# };
# src = ...
# buildPhase = '' ... '';
# name = ...
# myScript = "bar";
# };
# if you don't have need for unset you can omit the surrounding set = { .. } attr
# all attrs except flags cfg and mergeAttrBy will be merged with the
# additional data from flags depending on config settings
# It's used in composableDerivation in all-packages.nix. It's also used
# heavily in the new python and libs implementation

# Marc 2nd proposal: (not everything has been tested in detail yet..)
# depreceated because it's too complicated. use prepareDerivationArgs instead
