  • Nix version: 1.11.8
  • Nixpkgs version: 58e2270
  • Sandboxing enabled: yes

I will revert the update until upstream gets its act together. Bumping dependency versions for a patch release is totally unacceptable.

This reverts commit b1f8bd1.

Fixes #26080.

In this bugfix release, upstream has changed the Qt dependency requirement from
Qt 5.6 to Qt 5.7; such an update is not acceptable for an LTS release, so
updates to the Plasma desktop environment in NixOS are discontinued.

@ttuegel How should I go about switching to the working build? I upgraded but it's still broken.

An idea of the update date on https://nixos.org/channels/nixos-17.03 ?

If you fell experimental :-) you could try something what I did:

git clone https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs-channels.git
cd nixpkgs-channels
git checkout nixos-17.03
git remote add nixpkgs https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs.git
git cherry-pick 2412cec
nixos-rebuild switch -I nixpkgs=xxxxx/nixpkgs-channels

xxxxx = directory where you run your first command.

Was very smooth for me... but cannot promise anything :-)
