When installing a lua package that depends on luarocks, luarocks was not
capable of recognizing the luarocks module: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/316009 .
As explained here https://github.com/luarocks/luarocks/issues/1659,
luarocks needs a manifest to recognize the package.
I first attempted to generate a manifest with `luarocks-admin
make-manifest` on our current manual luarocks derivation but this ended
up being too hackish as the `make-manifest` requires a .rockspec or
.rock to work, which we had not.
It seemed simpled to just rename the current manual luarocks derivation to luarocks_bootstrap
in order to break cyclic dependencies in buildLuarocksPackage and add a
generated luarocks derivation. Previously it was impossible to test
luarocks because of the cyclic dependency but we will now be able to
test the generated derivation.
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/311767 improved build purity, but Python’s configure script checks the Darwin version to enable platform features. Replacing the check with a check for Darwin without the version allows the build to succeed again.
* Make use of libxcrypt conditional (documented inline)
* Patch use of uname to to not pull in some impure information
* Various cases where behavior is split out among operating systems are
now inclusive of FreeBSD
- Reorder input set to ASCIIbetical order
- Gather all sources into sources.nix file
- Including cbqn itself and the submodules
- Better names for the inputs
- Get rid of null
- Reorder expression to the hammering guidelines
- Update meta
- get rid of nested with
- license list
The check phase fails on aarch64-darwin because of:
```

```
I tried to bring `lld` into scope and set `RUSTFLAGS = "-C linker=lld`
but I couldn't get the tests to build. So I just disabled them on aarch64-darwin.
