Motivation for this change

This reverts the bump of qscintilla performed in #37330 as it actively breaks the qt5-darwin support added in 7343238.

Furthermore #37330 (namely 8ee6a03) never worked when building the qt4 variant nix-build -A qscintilla.

The original bump broke the following packages transitively:

  • pkgs.tora
  • pkgs.sqlitebrowser
  • pkgs.sonic-pi
  • and many more...

As I don't have the required resources to actively test/maintain the darwin compatibility of qscintilla and the qt4 variant never worked since the bump, I'd vote to revert the change for now and perform a bump with tested qt4 and darwin derivations.

@Ma27 Added issue to blacklist this for nixpkgs-update

(short side note, I'm currently running nox-review to reduce the risk of breakage, but that may take some time)

Added issue to blacklist this for nixpkgs-update

This is definetely an appropriate measure to do for now I guess, however I think that the core issue behind the breakage we experience is a different one:

several packages in nixpkgs live in the "main" set (e.g. nixos.foo), but have specialized derivations in meta pages (e.g. nixos.metapackage.foo).

One example is qscintilla where the qt5 derivation lives in nixos.libsForQt5.qscintilla, but the qt4 derivation (which was obviously not tested) lives in nixos.qscintilla. Another specimen would be dlib with nixos.dlib and nixos.pythonPackages.dlib which use the same source. Unfortunately I don't know too much about how nixpkgs-update works ATM, but I guess that we'll have to enhance the testing logic a bit as this is definetely an avoidable issue :-)

Instead of reverting, I would much rather that we keep a separate qscintilla-qt4 around for 2.9 (several pyqt4 programs depend on qscintilla) and then keep the move to 2.10 around for qt5.

@Ma27 There's a version bump (to 2.10.4) which fixes the qt4 variant It allows Octave to build on my workstation, so at least that works.

@peterhoeg I'd actually agree with you, however libsForQt5.qscintilla never worked with version 2.10: https://hydra.nixos.org/job/nixos/trunk-combined/nixpkgs.libsForQt5.qscintilla.x86_64-linux

The main reason for this is that in 3391006 was added a darwin compliancy patch from the homebrew repository which fixes the XCode build of qscintilla.
x86_64-linux was broken as well as the patch was applied for each qt5 build (which I fixed in this PR as well).

As you can see on the nox-review output I posted above this will fix several packages on master. We should at least merge be153f6 to fix the Linux builds and maybe even the revert (and let somebody try another bump in case he's able to test (and optionally rebase) the Darwin patch).

Thanks for doing this - you are absolutely right.
