Thanks to @phreedom for reporting the broken URL used fetchgit, which
was because I deleted my fork repository. Fortunately, in the meantime
other forks got to a more "working" state and being more actively
maintained than my fork. So that's why I switched using @nemerle's fork
now, as it is the the most usable one out there, at least in our case.
One stupid thing I've done in the first place was to use "1.0pre" as the
version and the fork uses "alpha 0.3.2", so it essentially is some kind
of a "downgrade" if you just look at the version.
Fortunately, peer-unreviewed research based on guesswork has shown that
I'm the only one using Boomerang on NixOS, so this shouldn't have a big
impact on the other non-existent users.
Also, this drops dependencies on boehmgc and cppunit, because building
with either one or both will fail at the moment.

Also leaving 0_8 branch, as it's compatible with older ffmpeg versions.
I'm planning that all expressions will be able to switch easily
between ffmpeg and libav (whatever default we choose, but I prefer libav).
Edited (twice) according to notes on the reverted b003138.
This commit also fixes an issue where pkgconfig was only added as a
dependency when gtk support was enabled. This made ./configure unable
to find other libraries (libtiff, libxml2, gnutls, and others).
The jing expression now creates its own "jing" wrapper script, so there
is no need for jing_tools anymore.
jing hasn't been updated in years, so I assume (or hope) that not many
(if any) have jing_tools in their configuration.nix. If you do, just
change it to jing and it should behave the same.
Duply is a shell front end for the duplicity backup tool

implementing backup job profiles, batch commands and more. Who says
secure backups on non-trusted spaces are no child's play?

it helps, but is incomplete.
more fixes are coming, but including these would change too much
generic btrfs code, which might cause trouble for others.
so the best advice is not to use btrfs send yet and wait for 3.11 or 3.12

Add linux kernel modules needed to do kernel tracing with LTTng.
To make them available to lttng in NixOS, add this to configuration.nix:
boot.extraModulePackages = [ pkgs.linuxPackages.lttngModules ];
Babeltrace is a command-line tool and library to read and convert LTTng
tracefiles. Give it a (binary) trace file/dir path and it will print a
human readable event log to standard out.
This is the Linux Trace Toolkit. Included in this package:
Command-line client:
lttng
Tracing daemons:
lttng-sessiond (automatically started by lttng)
lttng-relayd (remote trace collection daemon)
Userspace tracing can be done by using liblttng-ust. To do kernel
tracing we also need the LTTng kernel modules.
I've added a patch that changes "/sbin/modprobe" to just "modprobe".
It has been submitted for inclusion in mainline, so it will probably
make it into 3.11 (or 3.12 as 3.11 is fairly close to release).
It is very local, only affecting people who use the "send" feature.
Without it, send is unstable/unsafe to use incrementally.
It can probably be applied to 3.9 and 3.8 as well, but as I only
tested it against 3.10, so I didn't bother.
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.
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.
Conflicts (a little tricky, I did some cleanup of interacting changes):
pkgs/development/compilers/llvm/default.nix
pkgs/development/libraries/libpng/default.nix
pkgs/tools/package-management/nixops/default.nix
pkgs/top-level/all-packages.nix
Having N different copies of the NixOS kernel configuration is bad
because these copies tend to diverge. For instance, our 3.10 config
lacked some modules that were enabled in older configs, probably
because the 3.10 config had been copied off an earlier version of some
older kernel config.
So now there is a single kernel config in common-config.nix. It has a
few conditionals to deal with new/removed kernel options, but
otherwise it's pretty straightforward.
Also, a lot of cut&paste boilerplate between the kernel Nix
expressions is gone (such as preConfigure).
It doesn't make sense to build tools/applications with three different
python interpreter versions, so move them out of python modules list.
Also reverts 53ffc6e0ef.
We cannot import the packages from all of these three packages sets into
the global namespace, because they are indistinguishable. For example:
$ nix-env -qaP \* | grep pylint
pypyPackages.pylint pylint-0.26.0
python33Packages.pylint pylint-0.26.0
python27Packages.pylint pylint-0.26.0
When someone tries to install pylint by running "nix-env -i pylint",
then it's impossible to tell which one of these three versions was
chosen.
I can think of two ways to remedy this problem with recurseIntoAttrs:
1) Bake the name of the Python interpreter into every package's name,
i.e. offer "python27-pylint", "python33-pylint", and so on.
2) Ensure that all non-default package sets mark all their packages
'lowPrio' to unsure that the choice during installation is
deterministic.
We already have mini_httpd, but IMHO it is *too* minimal as in not very
flexible in configuration (for example, I haven't found any runtime
configuration for disabling logging), so that's why I decided to add
thttpd, which serves quite well as an ad-hoc HTTPd.

This is a simple tool to scan Nixpkgs for violations of the packaging
guidelines, such as multiple packages with the same name, packages
that lack a description or license, and so on.
To use:
$ nix-env -i nixpkgs-lint
$ cd .../nixpkgs
$ nixpkgs-lint
Current statistics:
Number of packages: 8666
Number of missing maintainers: 3711
Number of missing licenses: 6159
Number of missing descriptions: 1337
Number of bad descriptions: 633
Number of name collisions: 277
KQEMU was a linux kernel module for accelerating the QEMU virtual
machine on x86 hardware. Since QEMU 0.11 (and up), there is no support
for KQEMU any more, the focus is now on KVM.

I also added a patch that makes dovecot search for
plugins in /var/lib/dovecot/modules. This way, you
can add plugins from several packages without running
into circular dependencies. The module dir needs to
be populated before the dovecot service is started,
for example. This is currently not done in NixOS, so
you need to implement your own service in order to
get the plugins working.
The module patch has not been added to the old 2.1.x
package.
If no config.pulseaudio is explicitely set to false, build with pulse
support, because even if there is no pulse server available, chromium
will fall back to using ALSA.
And we definitely want to avoid that users have to build chromium for
themselves just for the sake of having pulse support. Thanks to @devhell
for actually helping me discovering this (I for myself do always rebuild
Chromium, so I won't notice those kind of things).

Slic3r is a G-code generator for 3D printers.
- Math-Clipper and Boost-Geometry-Utils have been bumped to satisfy
Slic3r.
- Slic3r has problems with perl 5.16 due to a locale issue (comma vs
period in floating point numbers). So we use perl 5.14.
- The tests fail, so we skip them. According to the author of Slic3r,
that should be safe:
"Tests failed because of a typo when the 0.9.10b tag was applied.
You can safely ignore the test results, Slic3r will work."
See https://github.com/alexrj/Slic3r/issues/1303
For reference, the errors look like this:
Use of uninitialized value $deg in numeric eq (==) at /tmp/nix-build-perl-slic3r-0.9.10b.drv-0/git-export/t/../lib/Slic3r/TriangleMesh.pm line 328.
# Looks like your test exited with 255 before it could output anything.
This fixes a bunch of issues for the NixOps Hetzner backend, because over there,
it's quite difficult to export the references graph without either duplicaing
lots of code or make a bunch of workarounds.

Wow, this is one of the most dangerous programs I've seen in a while. It not
only tries to probe for a package manager to install dependencies but also
tries to execute a whole bunch of programs in $PATH. That's why I decided to
override the postFixup phase for now in order to get rid of the current $PATH
and meanwhile getting the basics working.
So, I'm still not sure how to do the best implementation here on NixOS without
allowing winswitch to be too invasive and without restricting it too much so
that it's of no use.
But let's figure that out once we trimmed down the radiation level of this
"living" thing ;-)

This uses recurseForDerivations directly after using callPackage magic to ensure
that the input attributes can be overriden *and* nix-env shows the package as in
recurseIntoAttrs.
The reason for making this optional is because there probably is only a minority
of people who want to use XMPP and we don't want to introduce an additional
dependency for the majority, do we?

I'm still wondering why noone has reported this, but I found out about this
while trying to introduce someone to NixOS, eventually wondering why it is going
to install version 29 when using "nix-env -i chromium".
So, in hope that everyone out there using the package is using the attribute,
let's make _stable_ the default here.
