Motivation for this change

Fix #41106

Things done

A Python SyntaxError is raised when Xpra attempts to explicitly invoke python on the generated wrapper. To prevent that, we make it bypass the wrapper. The environment variables should still be correct because Xpra makes an effort to preserve the environment.

  • 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)
  • Ensured that relevant documentation is up to date
  • Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.

Looksk like I hit the wrong thing: xpra-wrapped starts by assigning sys.argv[0].

So to test:

  1. start xpra in daemon mode (with the nixos/xpra: xpra_Xdummy 3.0 crashes #85694 countermeasure)
$ xpra start --fake-xinerama=no :100
  1. attach
$ xpra attach :100
  1. Check attach output for SyntaxErrors. There should be none iff the patch is applied.
$ tail -f /run/user/1001/xpra/:100.log
