continuation of #109595
pkgconfig was aliased in 2018, however, it remained in
all-packages.nix due to its wide usage. This cleans
up the remaining references to pkgs.pkgsconfig and
moves the entry to aliases.nix.
python3Packages.pkgconfig remained unchanged because
it's the canonical name of the upstream package
on pypi.
Using "extraPacks" and "extraLibraries" arguments
it is possible to create fully functional virtual-envs
for SWI-Prolog projects.
(In a way similar to what "ghcWithPackages" does for Haskell)
In the previous version of this derivation, when the command
?- check_installation.
was issued in the swipl prompt, five errors were encountered. This patch fixes
that, so that the installation is correctly checked.
This enables the usage of the command pack_install to install prolog libraries,
which otherwise fails for the lack of libarchive.
The following parameters are now available:
* hardeningDisable
To disable specific hardening flags
* hardeningEnable
To enable specific hardening flags
Only the cc-wrapper supports this right now, but these may be reused by
other wrappers, builders or setup hooks.
cc-wrapper supports the following flags:
* fortify
* stackprotector
* pie (disabled by default)
* pic
* strictoverflow
* format
* relro
* bindnow
`selectVersion ./foo "bar"' instead of `import ./foo/bar.nix'.
* Replaced `with args' with formal function arguments in several
packages.
* Renamed several files to `default.nix'. As a general rule, version
numbers should only be included in the filename when there is a
reason to keep multiple versions of a package in Nixpkgs.
Otherwise, it just makes it harder to update the package.
