The $doc stuff needed changes, probably because of ghostscript newly
reacting to some configure flags that stdenv passes.
- share/ghostscript/9.22/doc was an ugly location for documentation,
and I didn't like their new share/ghostscript/9.24 either,
so that got changed to share/doc/ghostscript/9.24
- their process no longer installs examples, apparently,
but I don't expect that would be any problem for us
There are also non-security changes in the releases. /cc #32459.
Printing test OK, and I tested work with some postscript files.
I also fixed the license - it was changed in 2013 :-/
* pkgs: refactor needless quoting of homepage meta attribute
A lot of packages are needlessly quoting the homepage meta attribute
(about 1400, 22%), this commit refactors all of those instances.
* pkgs: Fixing some links that were wrongfully unquoted in the previous
commit
* Fixed some instances
This reverts commit 13fab57d12.
Hopefully fixes the printing tests at
http://hydra.nixos.org/build/14952070/log/raw ; if not, it's probably
gutenprint although I doubt:
client# lp: Unsupported document-format "application/pdf".
(My OCD kicked in today...)
Remove repeated package names, capitalize first word, remove trailing
periods and move overlong descriptions to longDescription.
I also simplified some descriptions as well, when they were particularly
long or technical, often based on Arch Linux' package descriptions.
I've tried to stay away from generated expressions (and I think I
succeeded).
Some specifics worth mentioning:
* cron, has "Vixie Cron" in its description. The "Vixie" part is not
mentioned anywhere else. I kept it in a parenthesis at the end of the
description.
* ctags description started with "Exuberant Ctags ...", and the
"exuberant" part is not mentioned elsewhere. Kept it in a parenthesis
at the end of description.
* nix has the description "The Nix Deployment System". Since that
doesn't really say much what it is/does (especially after removing
the package name!), I changed that to "Powerful package manager that
makes package management reliable and reproducible" (borrowed from
nixos.org).
* Tons of "GNU Foo, Foo is a [the important bits]" descriptions
is changed to just [the important bits]. If the package name doesn't
contain GNU I don't think it's needed to say it in the description
either.
The newer version breaks printing to non-Postscript printers (e.g. HP
Deskjets). This is because the gstoraster and gstopxl filters were
removed. They are now in a package named "cups-filters" that we don't
have yet.
See #490 discussion.
This reverts commit 1278859d31, reversing
changes made to 0c020c98f9.
Conflicts:
pkgs/desktops/xfce/core/xfce4-session.nix (take master)
pkgs/lib/misc.nix (auto)
the previous troubles with a mixture of libpng versions fade away.
I also enable back GPL Ghostscript as the default.
I checked that 'awesome' builds fine (it calls imagemagick for some pictures in
its build script), as a proof that imagemagick does not crash anymore.
