This update was generated by hackage2nix v20151217-3-gd4ae18a using the following inputs:

- Hackage: 62b6b580fb
- LTS Haskell: d3e5ae70f9
- Stackage Nightly: ef03f60b53
Two reasons for this change:
- most of 5.0 packages don't build yet
- node packages are memory intensive and block Hydra evaluation
(Too many heap sections: Increase MAXHINCR or MAX_HEAP_SECTS)
PS: Removing node packages from evaluation goes from 7.5G down to
4.6G for whole nixos release job.
See #3594 and #11865
It is a little weird that chromium has chromium, chromiumBeta,
chromiumDev but this one is google-chrome, google-chrome-beta,
google-chrome-dev. Not quite sure what the best resolution is, if any.
Relevant changes:
- Python version switched to Python 3
- ssdeep library got replaced with tlsh
- the 'magic' Python package got replaced with a different one
- Minor build system improvements == less work for us
Currently, building RPM with `python = python3` causes this:
checking for a Python interpreter with version >= 2.6... python3
checking for python3... /nix/store/dykqxnrwiz9drlcv2wy8lpvl3xvklx0g-python3-3.4.3/bin/python3
checking for python3 version... 3.4
checking for Python.h... yes
checking for library containing Py_Main... no
configure: error: missing python library
That comes from this snippet in configure.ac:
AC_SEARCH_LIBS([Py_Main],[python${PYTHON_VERSION} python],[
WITH_PYTHON_LIB="$ac_res"
],[AC_MSG_ERROR([missing python library])
])
So it's looking for (e.g) `libpython3.4.so` wheras we have `libpython3.4m.so`.
Patching the configure script to match seems to make that work (although
I don't really understand what the heck is this 'm' business about).
This refactoring changes a number of things:
- use system copies of Python libraries BeautifulSoup, and HTTPLIB2,
- custom install to avoid installation of unnecessary files and poor
directory structure, and
- add patch for sorting out file paths, in particular this fixes
localization.
