Changed using ONEKEY fork of sasquatch which is up-to-date with
squashfs-tools 4.5.1 and the Darwin compatibility patch used to be
shipped in Nixpkgs applies cleanly as well.
The updated version also provides a big-endian compatible build as
well to support even more insane squashfs dialects.
We currently package all CUDA versions from 10.0 onwards. In
some cases, CUDA is the only thing preventing us from removing old
versions of GCC. Since we currently don’t deprecate or remove CUDA
versions, this will be an increasing drag on compiler maintenance in
Nixpkgs going forward unless we establish a sensible policy. After
discussing this with @SomeoneSerge in the context of old versions
of GCC, I learned that there was already a desire to remove at least
versions prior to 11.3, as those versions were only packaged in the
old “runfile” format, but that it was blocked on someone doing
the work to warn about the upcoming deprecation for a release cycle.
This change adds a release note and warnings indicating that CUDA 10.x
and 11.x will be removed in Nixpkgs 25.05, about 8 months from now.
I chose this version cut‐off because these versions of CUDA require
GCC < 12. GCC releases a major version every year, and seems to
support about four releases at a time, releasing the last update to
the oldest version and marking it as unsupported on their site around
the time of the release of the next major version. Therefore, by the
time of the 25.05 release, we should expect GCC 15 to be released
and GCC 11 to become unsupported. Adding a warning and communicating
the policy of only shipping CUDA versions that work with supported
compilers in the release notes means that we should be able to
clean up old versions as required without any issue or extensive
deprecation period in future, without obligating us to do so if there
is a strongly compelling reason to be more lenient. That should help
solve both shipping an indefinitely‐growing list of CUDA versions
and an indefinitely‐growing list of GCC and LLVM versions.
As I’m not a user of CUDA myself, I can’t be sure of how sensible
this version support policy is, but I think it’s fair to say that
it’s reasonable for Nixpkgs to choose not to maintain compiler
versions that are unsupported upstream just for the sake of versions
of CUDA that are also unmaintained. CUDA 11.x has not received an
update for two years already, and would only become unsupported in
Nixpkgs in over half a year’s time.
CUDA 10.x is currently unused in‐tree except for the unmaintained
Caffe and NVIDIA DCGM, which depends on multiple CUDA versions solely
so that it can provide plugins for those versions. The latest DCGM
version has already removed support for CUDA 10.x and is just awaiting
an update in Nixpkgs. They maintain a list of supported versions to
build plugins for in their CMake build system, so it should be simple
enough for us to only build support for the versions of CUDA that we
support in Nixpkgs.
From what I can tell, CUDA 11.x is currently used by the following
packages other than DCGM:
* `catboost`, because of
<https://github.com/catboost/catboost/issues/2540>. It looks like
upstream has since redesigned this part of their build system, so
perhaps the problem is no longer present, or would be easier to fix.
* `magma_2_6_2`, an old version from before upstream added CUDA
12 support. This seems okay to break to me; that version is not
maintained and will never be updated for new CUDA versions, and
the CUDA support is optional.
* `paddlepaddle`, which, uh, also requires OpenSSL 1.1 of all
things. <https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/Paddle/issues/67571>
states that PaddlePaddle supports up to 12.3.
* `python3Packages.cupy`, which is listed as “possibly incompatible
with cutensor 2.0 that comes with `cudaPackages_12`”. I’m
not sure what the “possibly” means here, but according to
<https://github.com/cupy/cupy/tree/v13.3.0?tab=readme-ov-file#installation>
they ship binary wheels using CUDA 12.x so I think this should
be fine.
* `python3Packages.tensorrt`, which supports CUDA 12.x going by
<https://github.com/NVIDIA/TensorRT/blob/release/10.4/CMakeLists.txt#L111>.
* TensorFlow, which has a link to
<https://www.tensorflow.org/install/source#gpu> above the
`python3Packages.tensorflow-bin` definition, but that page lists
the versions we package as supporting CUDA 12.x.
Given the years since CUDA 11.x received any update upstream, and the
seemingly very limited set of packages that truly require it, I think
the policy of being able to drop versions that require unsupported
compilers starting from the next Nixpkgs release is a reasonable
one, but of course I’m open to feedback from the CUDA maintainers
about this.
In preparation for the deprecation of `stdenv.isX`.
These shorthands are not conducive to cross-compilation because they
hide the platforms.
Darwin might get cross-compilation for which the continued usage of `stdenv.isDarwin` will get in the way
One example of why this is bad and especially affects compiler packages
https://www.github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/343059
There are too many files to go through manually but a treewide should
get users thinking when they see a `hostPlatform.isX` in a place where it
doesn't make sense.

Rewrite replaceDependency so that it can apply multiple replacements in
one go. This includes correctly handling the case where one of the
replacements itself needs to have another replacement applied as well.
This rewritten function is now aptly called replaceDependencies.
For compatibility, replaceDependency is retained as a simple wrapper
over replaceDependencies. It will cause a rebuild because the unpatched
dependency is now referenced by derivation instead of by storePath, but
the functionality is equivalent.

This is marked as broken already because of a Jupyter Notebook upgrade,
and the upstream repository hasn’t been touched in two years,
so there’s little reason to try doing anything about its nose
dependency. Other distributions have already dropped this package;
there’s a patch from an openSUSE maintainer to migrate it off nose,
but they don’t seem to package it any more.
* luarocks-packages-updater: convert into pyproject package
* pluginupdate: move to its own folder
so we can copy just the folder when using this as a module
* luarocks-packages-updater: adress review
* buildNeovimPlugin: pass a derivation to luaAttr
and deprecate passing a string.
Passing a string is not a typical/good nixpkgs habit. We want to give more control on
which attribute to wrap, without having to add it to the lua package set
necessarily.
* vimPlugins: update plugin with new syntax
buildNeovimPlugin now accepts derivations instead of the lua package name. This PR reflects the change
Boto has not seen a release since 2018, and has been officially
marked as deprecated in favour of boto3 and botocore since 2021. It
has required downstream patching to keep it running on newer Python
versions and is broken on the new default of Python 3.12. It also
requires the obsolete nose test framework that we are in the process
of removing.
The few packages we carry that still require boto are in poor upstream
maintenance state and some of those were already broken. The NixOps
AWS plugin was the last holdout that justified keeping this package,
but it is now also broken.
This package has been broken since 24.05 (`pkg_resources` error when
running `toil --help`), and hasn’t built since Python 3.12 became
the default. There have been two major upstream releases since this
package was last updated. I tried to package the newest version, which
drops the boto dependency, but unfortunately it requires obsolete
versions of other Python libraries that we no longer package. Since
it’s been broken for this long anyway and can’t be updated,
let’s drop it for now.
No release in almost half a decade, no maintainer in Nixpkgs, and
the README describes it as obsolete and recommends alternatives:
<978bc1926c/README.rst (obsolescence-notice)>.
No release in four years and depends on the deprecated and broken
boto package; to quote the README:

The proton-vpn-network-manager-wireguard and proton-vpn-network-manager-openvpn
modules are now legacy: The same functionality is now in proton-vpn-network-manager
module, version 0.6.3 and upwards.
This commit removes the 2 deprecated modules and creates a throw message for
them to the recommanded package to be used.
