Let's be more explicit:

Suggested change

texinfo7_0 = callPackage ../development/tools/misc/texinfo/7.0.nix { };

texinfo7 = callPackage ../development/tools/misc/texinfo/7.1.nix { };

texinfo7_0 = callPackage ../development/tools/misc/texinfo/7.0.nix { };

texinfo7_1 = callPackage ../development/tools/misc/texinfo/7.1.nix { };

texinfo = texinfo7_1;

@AndersonTorres would like to commit your suggestion, yet the message I receive over and over again when trying to do so is: This diff has recently been updated. Refresh and try again.

Are you okay with me making the change locally and including you suggestion in a single commit?

OK to me.

Are you okay with me making the change locally and including you suggestion in a single commit?

It should have been squashed anyway

Let me ask a naive question: do we even need 7.0 right now?

After giving it some thought, @SuperSandro2000, I believe that texinfo7_0 could be useful to have, so it can be used by ffmpeg-headless, until ffmpeg docs are patched upstream to work with texinfo 7.1 (see my comment below).

Then I would suggest to use it right away and add a comment when we can switch to 7.1

@SuperSandro2000 What are your thoughts around removing texinfo7_0 in favor of texinfo7_1 and using the patch below?

Do not remove 7.0 if it is still needed.

Or at least remove it in a separate PR.

We can also do this later.

trofi · 2023-10-23T12:22:54Z

Not sure if it's just texonfo-7.1 update or some extra patches I have locally, but I am seeing the following failure against this PR on ffmpeg-headless:

ffmpeg-headless> makeinfo: error parsing ./doc/t2h.pm: Undefined subroutine &Texinfo::Config::set_from_init_file called at ./doc/t2h.pm line 24.
ffmpeg-headless> POD    doc/libavfilter.pod
ffmpeg-headless> make: *** [doc/Makefile:69: doc/libavformat.html] Error 1 shuffle=3953956671
ffmpeg-headless> make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....

Does it work for you by chance?

afh · 2023-10-29T19:51:52Z

Thanks for testing, @trofi. I'm seeing the same issue as you are when trying to run ffmpeg-headless in combination with the changes in this PR.

It seems the subroutine in question (among others) was prefixed with texinfo_ (see this commit) in September 2021 along with other refactorings that break producing the FFmpeg docs.

Applying the patch below in pkgs/development/libraries/ffmpeg/generic.nix fixes the issue. What is the best course of action from your point of view?
Report the patch to FFmpeg upstream and add it to the ffmpeg nix package for the time being?

ℹ️ Testing the proposed changes here with ffmpeg 6.1

afh · 2023-12-01T10:19:27Z

I was able to successfully build and run ffmpeg-headless version 6.1 (see #271399) with the changes proposed here.

@trofi would you be willing to test the two PRs (this and #271399) in combination?

Sure! I applied both to staging and got ffmped_6 failure as:

for major releases link to chagelog/release log is sufficient. as you stated, if diff is too large, then its probably not that useful

kirillrdy · 2024-02-17T10:03:16Z

@infinisil sorry to bother you, can you recommend what to do about by-name check in this case ?

afh · 2024-02-17T14:46:34Z

Would moving texinfo into the pkgs/by-name tree be something people would find acceptable? I'd be happy to draft a PR, if folks see value in it.

AndersonTorres · 2024-02-17T18:22:39Z

No, not good. Use this instead:

#287918

#287918 (comment)

afh · 2024-02-17T18:27:39Z

Very interesting, @AndersonTorres, thanks for sharing. Will this also address/fix the by-name check failures?

afh · 2024-02-17T18:28:34Z

Also could you provide more context, please, on why moving texinfo into the by-name tree is bad? I'm genuinely curious.

afh · 2024-02-17T20:14:21Z

@AndersonTorres, I have some local changes for texinfo in the same vein as the PRs you referenced. Should this PR be re-used for that or would a new (draft?) PR be more appropriate?

afh · 2024-02-18T08:14:32Z

Eager to learn more about nixpkgs and motivated by @AndersonTorres' comment I drafted #289690. Since you, @AndersonTorres and @kirillrdy, have been so kind to share your knowledge and expertise on this PR recently, maybe you'd like to leave a feedback on the draft PR #289690 as well; I'd appreciate it greatly.
