  • crypton is maintained, contrary to cryptonite
  • since the Hackage scrypt package uses SSE2, we can't build it on non-x86 platforms (non x86_64 even probably). The best option is to disable the Scrypt module. To prevent cabal from pulling in scrypt in spite of that, we need to patch build-depends to respect the flag.

Currently untested, waiting for cache to catch up.

Things done

  • Built on platform(s)
    • x86_64-linux
    • aarch64-linux
    • x86_64-darwin
    • aarch64-darwin
  • For non-Linux: Is sandboxing enabled in nix.conf? (See Nix manual)
    • sandbox = relaxed
    • sandbox = true
  • Tested, as applicable:
  • Tested compilation of all packages that depend on this change using nix-shell -p nixpkgs-review --run "nixpkgs-review rev HEAD". Note: all changes have to be committed, also see nixpkgs-review usage
  • Tested basic functionality of all binary files (usually in ./result/bin/)
  • 24.11 Release Notes (or backporting 23.11 and 24.05 Release notes)
    • (Package updates) Added a release notes entry if the change is major or breaking
    • (Module updates) Added a release notes entry if the change is significant
    • (Module addition) Added a release notes entry if adding a new NixOS module
  • Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.

Confirmed to work on aarch64-linux and x86_64-linux. Darwin is difficult to test at the moment because we don't have any sort of cache from a Hydra jobset.

LGTM, but maybe @cdepillabout wants to have a quick glance.
