The functionality provided by this package has been added to the Idris contrib library (module Interfaces.Verified).
Therefore identifiers cannot be disambiguated anymore.

Motivation for this change

@NixOS/backports #68361

Things done
  • Tested using sandboxing (nix.useSandbox on NixOS, or option sandbox in nix.conf on non-NixOS)
  • 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 nix-review --run "nix-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)
  • Ensured that relevant documentation is up to date
  • Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.

Can't we just remove the package then?

I wasn't sure about people depending on heyting-algebra and not knowing it has been superseded by the Idris libs.

Shouldn't we remove the package then?

If people depend on it, they will be using an older version of idris, so they might as well use an old nixpkgs version or copy this package to their project.

It doesn't look like any packages in nixpkgs depend on this.

My fondness of Heyting algebras notwithstanding, and given this is in Idris contrib, I think it's fine to remove the package completely - remove this file and the reference to it in idris-modules/default.nix. Or let me know if you don't have time, I'll do it.
