The `dmenu` package includes two binary programs, `dmenu` and `stest`, and two shell scripts, `dmenu_run` and `dmenu_path`. `dmenu_run` invokes `dmenu` and `dmenu_path`, and `dmenu_path` invokes `stest`. `dmenu_run`'s invocation of `dmenu` was patched to run it by its full store path, but its invocation of `dmenu_path` and `dmenu_path`'s invocation of `stest` were not. If `dmenu_path` and `stest` were not in the set of system packages or otherwise in the `PATH`, this situation would result in `dmenu_run` opening a dmenu instance with no menu entries (which would normally be generated by `dmenu_path`, which `dmenu_run` couldn't find, as it was running it by `PATH` lookup). This commit fixes the package to also patch the invocation of `dmenu_path` in `dmenu_run` and the invocations of `stest` in `dmenu_path` to invoke those programs by their full store paths. I have tested this change on NixOS.
Nixpkgs is a collection of packages for the Nix package manager. It is periodically built and tested by the hydra build daemon as so-called channels. To get channel information via git, add nixpkgs-channels as a remote:
% git remote add channels git://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs-channels.git
For stability and maximum binary package support, it is recommended to maintain
custom changes on top of one of the channels, e.g. nixos-16.03 for the latest
release and nixos-unstable for the latest successful build of master:
% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-16.03
For pull-requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master.
NixOS linux distribution source code is located inside
nixos/ folder.
