with structuredAttrs lists will be bash arrays which cannot be exported
which will be a issue with some patches and some wrappers like cc-wrapper
this makes it clearer that NIX_CFLAGS_COMPILE must be a string as lists
in env cause a eval failure
With all libcs I'm aware of, libdl is now either empty (Glibc, musl,
uclibc, illumos), a symlink to libc or equivalent (Apple), or does not
exist (FreeBSD, NetBSD). So explicitly linking libdl now does nothing
for the former platforms, and breaks the build for the latter
platforms.
With this patch I've removed -ldl from all overridden linker flags for
all free packages in Nixpkgs. Everything still seems to build.
Workaround build failure on -fno-common toolchains like upstream
gcc-10. Otherwise build fails as:
ld: jamin-preferences.o:/build/jamin-0.95.0/src/hdeq.h:64: multiple definition of
`l_notebook1'; jamin-callbacks.o:/build/jamin-0.95.0/src/hdeq.h:64: first defined here
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.
