The reason I went through this whole journey of gathering dependencies
and debugging just in order to get i3 tests working was because I wanted
to supply test cases to a small patch I wrote for the upstream project.
This adds/updates quite a few Perl packages and a X dummy helper, which
are all needed in order to successfully run the test suite.
This is actually a small script which just starts an X server without
any real display. Right now only needed for running the test suite of
the i3 window manager within the Nix chroot, but might be useful for
running other tests needing a DISPLAY.
Usage is just like a regular X server, so in order to start an instance
for display :666, you just run it like this:
xdummy :666

This is actually needed by X11-XCB, but I only found out after hours of
digging through Perl code from the stone age.

This has been proven to be VERY handy for providing useful stacktraces
in Perl. Just invoke it using:
perl -MCarp::Always yourshinyscript.pl

- To fix build problems, I refactored the build process
according to Mozilla recommendations.
- 31.0 should become the next ESR branch (31 released today).

Shotcut segfaults on startup when compiled against an MLT which was
built with qt4. Kdenlive seqfaults when compiled against an MLT which
was built with qt5. Hence the need for the two variants.
Also, I'm adopting MLT as a maintainer.
gcc42 was removed in commit 5add082ab8
("gcc-4.2: Remove") but there are still some references to it. Remove
those references to fix Hydra tarball job.
kalibrate-rtl calculates the local oscillator frequency offset in
RTL-SDR devices.
kalibrate-rtl has no tags/releases, so I'm using the latest commit from
git master (dated 2013-12-14). I made an upstream issue about making a
release back in May[1], but I've gotten no response yet.

Currently, we have a 'jack' package with attrname 'jack1d' and a
'jackdbus' package with attrname 'jackaudio'. Make it consistent 'jack1'
and 'jack2' in both package name and attrname.
This aligns the naming with what can be found on the JACK homepage.
Q: what's the difference between jack1 and jack2?
A: http://trac.jackaudio.org/wiki/Q_differenc_jack1_jack2
[Bjørn Forsman:
* wrap some long lines
* tweak meta attrs (don't repeat package name, s/meta.maintainer/meta.maintainers/)
* provide a version number (v2.0) for 'evemu' (for nix-env)

This is going to be a dependency of the upcoming Gojim version 0.16, so
let's package it so it's easy to run release canidate versions using
overrideDerivation without much cruft.

There are zillions of lines of the form
foo = callPackage ../bla/foo { };
in all-packages.nix. To get rid of this verbosity, you can now list
such packages in pkgs/auto-packages.nix. This is just a list of
package file names, e.g.
development/libraries/libogg
development/libraries/libvorbis
tools/archivers/gnutar
If the package needs non-default function arguments, or if its
intended attribute name is different from its file name, then you
cannot put it in auto-packages.nix and instead need to specify it in
all-packages.nix.
If Nix had a glob function (https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/235), we
could even get rid of auto-packages.nix and have package expressions
be discovered automatically. However, that might not be desirable
because of the need to traverse the file system to find packages we
may not even use.
This package requires a special build process that's not based on Cabal (see
<https://github.com/agocorona/haste-perch/issues/5>). Someone needs to figure
out how to compile and install this stuff in the context of Nix.
