gcc: enable stripping for cross-compilers
2022-07-25setup-hooks/strip.sh: add strip{All,Debug}ListTarget variablesSergei Trofimovich1-0/+8
This change mimics existing strip{All,Debug}List variables to allow special stripping directories just for Target. The primary use case in mind is gcc where package has to install both host and target ELFs. They have to be stripped by their own strip tools accordingly.

I don't know if getopt is available everywhere, so I did not use it. in any case, it can be changed to use getopt in the future if needed.

2022-05-30meta.sourceProvenance documentation: clarify it is unaffected by changes to ↵Adam Joseph1-0/+2
meta.license This commit clarifies that the meaning of the `meta.sourceProvenance` field is independent of and unaffected by the value of the `meta.license` field. This is based on the intent of the RFC author as expressed here: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/161098#issuecomment-1081270201 This clarification is added for two reasons: 1. If in the future there should be some disagreement about what `sourceProvenance` to assign to a package, this may help resolve the disagreement. Any interpretation of `sourceProvenance` which is influenced by the `meta.license` is clearly an incorrect interpretation. 2. If it should turn out that it is impossible to disentangle `sourceProvenance` from `meta.license`, this would indicate the need for changes to the `sourceProvenance` scheme. That change might be as simple as replacing the sentence added by this commit with some other sentence explaining how the two fields influence each other. This commit implements the recommendation made in the paragraph of this comments which begins with "Please say this explicitly...": https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/161098#issuecomment-1081309089

2022-04-21docs: sync `patchShebangs` comments with manualValentin Gagarin1-2/+31
this is not an actual sync, but rather the manual taking the leading role. right now it does not make sense to actually change `patch-shebangs.sh` as that would cause a rebuild of the entire universe. we should figure out how to keep them aligned with minimal effort both in terms of maintenance as well as navigation for readers.

2022-04-02cross-compilation.chapter.md: give examples of all depFooBar casesAdam Joseph2-11/+36
This commit describes the "->" notation for dependency types in greater detail, and uses g++ to provide examples of all six cases (although the host->target and target->target examples are a bit artificial). It also adds three more rows to the table for the "->*" dependency types for non-compiler-like packages; these dependency types were already present in the documentation but the "*" was not really explained. Lastly, this commit adds a hyperlink to the table from the place where it is mentioned in the "specifying dependencies" chapter.
