Things that use mkDerivationWith fail to build like kcc. How about a check in the qtbase setup hook that wrapQtAppsHook is present?

This satisfies things that use mkDerivationWith, but it will break things that don't use any Qt deriver. It is not sufficient to only use wrapQtAppsHook.

Oh, I wasn't looking carefully at the build output for kcc and it's actually pyqt that fails because it doesn't use mkDerivationWith. I'll anticipate things like

also failing to build, but they're improper fixes anyway.

Seems right to me 👍 Aborting seems more friendly TBH.

Hello, I'm a bot and I thank you in the name of the community for your contributions.

Nixpkgs is a busy repository, and unfortunately sometimes PRs get left behind for too long. Nevertheless, we'd like to help committers reach the PRs that are still important. This PR has had no activity for 180 days, and so I marked it as stale, but you can rest assured it will never be closed by a non-human.

If this is still important to you and you'd like to remove the stale label, we ask that you leave a comment. Your comment can be as simple as "still important to me". But there's a bit more you can do:

If you received an approval by an unprivileged maintainer and you are just waiting for a merge, you can @ mention someone with merge permissions and ask them to help. You might be able to find someone relevant by using Git blame on the relevant files, or via GitHub's web interface. You can see if someone's a member of the nixpkgs-committers team, by hovering with the mouse over their username on the web interface, or by searching them directly on the list.

If your PR wasn't reviewed at all, it might help to find someone who's perhaps a user of the package or module you are changing, or alternatively, ask once more for a review by the maintainer of the package/module this is about. If you don't know any, you can use Git blame on the relevant files, or GitHub's web interface to find someone who touched the relevant files in the past.

If your PR has had reviews and nevertheless got stale, make sure you've responded to all of the reviewer's requests / questions. Usually when PR authors show responsibility and dedication, reviewers (privileged or not) show dedication as well. If you've pushed a change, it's possible the reviewer wasn't notified about your push via email, so you can always officially request them for a review, or just @ mention them and say you've addressed their comments.

Lastly, you can always ask for help at our Discourse Forum, or more specifically, at this thread or at #nixos' IRC channel.

This would still be needed.

This would also need to detect using mixed Qt versions.

Would be better to instead make Qt to behave more like a normal nixpkgs library #71089

Sure, though detecting mixed Qt would be needed anyway.

This is neither necessary nor useful to detect mixed Qt versions.
