The current FlightGear expression doesn't work:
bash$ nix-build -A flightgear
/nix/store/3c47sibzb9h1vhnn0gnh692hkpjc5p5v-flightgear-2.10.0
bash$ ./result/bin/fgfs
ERROR: The path '/nix/store/3c47sibzb9h1vhnn0gnh692hkpjc5p5v-flightgear-2.10.0/lib/FlightGear' does not exist in the file system.
Base package check failed:
Version [none] found at: /nix/store/3c47sibzb9h1vhnn0gnh692hkpjc5p5v-flightgear-2.10.0/lib/FlightGear
Version 2.10.0 is required.
Please upgrade/downgrade base package and set the path to your fgdata
with --fg-root=path_to_your_fgdata
We could probably make the 2.10.0 version run, but I had already
upgraded it to 2.12.0 before I made it work. It seems only the data dir
configuration was wrong/missing: FG_DATA_DIR="$out/share/FlightGear/".
Simgear must be in version sync with flightgear, hence the upgrade.
Most of the diff is because I rewrote the flightgear expression to what
I think is the "new style". I wanted to add a preConfigure phase but
didn't understand why this expression had custom phases. So I just
rewrote the whole thing to something I consider more readable.
* Remove package name
* Start with upper case letter
* Remove trailing period
Also reword some descriptions and move some long descriptions to
longDescription.
I'm not touching generated packages.
There are many more packages to fix, this is just a start.
Rules:
* Don't repeat the package name (not always that easy...)
* Start with capital letter
* Don't end with full stop
* Don't start with "The ..." or "A ..."
I've also added descriptions to some packages and rewritten others.
Copying these over to the output path of the main derivation will just
unnecessarily blow up the size of it with files we already have in the
store anyway.

The remix packs are a collection of newly remixed versions of the
old music from the PC/3DO versions. By using useRemixPacks these are
fetched as well and added to the game.

As we now have a tagged first release, it really doesn't make sense to
introduce additional dependencies by using fetchgit.

This updates the 3DO video extractor to the latest Git version, which
should fix a too restrictive dependency on base which leads to it not
compiling with current nixpkgs.

The videos work, but there is a problem with sound:
ALSA lib dlmisc.c:236:(snd1_dlobj_cache_get) Cannot open shared library
/nix/store/9z51hr9l19vdhgmqd60jwwrg6ny5md2d-alsa-plugins-1.0.26/lib/alsa-lib/libasound_module_pcm_pulse.so
It tries to open a 64bit plugin, which obviously fails. I think this depends on
/etc/asound.conf, but I'm not sure how to fix it.
Regardless of the problem, in one computer I tried the sound works but other
apps cannot output sound. In another, the sound doesn't work and other apps
continue working as normal.
It turns out that the .deb only contains the changelog and some other docs.
Revert back to using the i686 version, but keep the double url for the future.
I forgot in the previous commit to update the version as I had changed the
tarball hash.
I also modified a bit the launcher script, since xz should only be needed by
the installer.
Since there is no way to modify either steam.sh or the steam binary as they are
hash checked, I took the approach of bypassing steam.sh and create a script
that does its job.
For now it segfaults, but when I try to run under strace, it works perfectly.
Need to check this.
The binaries that get copied to $HOME need patchelf to run, and after that I
need all the runtime libs in the library path. Still not working as I need
glibc2.15.
The script installed with this expression only copies a boostrapper and another
script to the user's home folder. Those also need to be patched to get on with
the installation.
This is optional because you have to have an image of a Star Control II 3DO CD
image. I decided to hack together a small OperaFS (that's the proprietary
filesystem used with 3DO CD-ROMs) file extractor, which should possibly make
it as painless as possible to include those videos.
It may be a good idea to split off the haskell package into another attribute
set (possibly haskellPackages?), but I really don't think there is a need for
that, because it's really just UQM and 3DO specific.
