Last real upstream activity appears to be ~6 years ago and depends on
python2 packages that will soon be vulnerable

Helps #101964

Motivation for this change
Things done
  • Tested using sandboxing (nix.useSandbox on NixOS, or option sandbox in nix.conf on non-NixOS linux)
  • Built on platform(s)
    • NixOS
    • macOS
    • other Linux distributions
  • Tested via one or more NixOS test(s) if existing and applicable for the change (look inside nixos/tests)
  • Tested compilation of all pkgs that depend on this change using nix-shell -p nixpkgs-review --run "nixpkgs-review wip"
  • Tested execution of all binary files (usually in ./result/bin/)
  • Determined the impact on package closure size (by running nix path-info -S before and after)

for removal of top-level attrs, we usually add an entry to pkgs/top-level/aliases.nix which will thrown error.

I think we should say something like:

amazon-glacier-cmd-interface has been removed due to it being unmaintained

Which is true, if it was python3, we wouldn't be doing this.
