The original idea behind this change (described in ticket #11064) was to
improve the assertions to avoid that users of the X server accidentally
forget to configure a DM or WM.
However this caused several issues with setups that require X, but no DM
or WM. The keymap testcases became instable as well as now disabling DMs
needs to be done explicitly.
(see https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/31268#issuecomment-347080036)
In the end the idea behind the change and #11064 was obviously a
mistake, so reverting it completely for now should be fine.
X libraries in LD_LIBRARY_PATH seem to not be needed anymore.
I've tracked this addition as far as I could
(02cef04c81) and they seem to be added for unfree
NVIDIA and ATI drivers but at least for NVIDIA they are not needed anymore. We
can add them with patchelf instead if it turns out to be the case with ATI.
Currently broken on NixOS due to hardcoded modprobe binary path (see
bug #30756 from Oct 2017), no activity on a proposed fix for months.
As the protocol is terribly broken anyways, let's better remove it
completely, and not talk about anymore ;-)
Closes#30756.
Commit 1f2b938 introduced a module for evilwm as a window-manager, but
did not actually add this module to window-manager's default.nix which
renders it useless.
Resolved the following conflicts (by carefully applying patches from the both
branches since the fork point):
pkgs/development/libraries/epoxy/default.nix
pkgs/development/libraries/gtk+/3.x.nix
pkgs/development/python-modules/asgiref/default.nix
pkgs/development/python-modules/daphne/default.nix
pkgs/os-specific/linux/systemd/default.nix
This makes memoization of Nixpkgs evaluation less effective, since
some Nixpkgs invocations may have 'config = {}' while others may have
'config = { xorg = {}; }'.
Instead set 'config = {}'.
mate-control-center depends on mate-settings-daemon, but the later needs
gsettings schemas provided by the former. To fix this the gsettings schema
path from mate-control-center is added to XDG_DATA_DIRS at session
startup.
Instead of polluting the environment with environment variables which
are inherited by processes spawned from awesome, use the command line
argument "--search" to add things to the search path.

feh is used to set background image for desktop managers that do not
support it directly, however there is no need to include it in PATH.
Fixes#17450.
Now there are separate `xfce4.xfce4mixer_pulse` and `xfce4.xfcevolumed_pulse` attributes for PulseAudio versions of these packages, instead of relying on Nixpkgs option. Mind that xfce4-volumed and xfce4-volumed-pulse are actually two separate programs without much overlap.
There are security fixes in multiple packages /cc #32117,
so I'm merging a little earlier, with a few thousand jobs
still not finished on Hydra for x86_64-darwin and aarch64-linux.
