since this change causes over 500 rebuilds, do you mind targeting the staging branch

git rebase --onto=staging HEAD~1
git push .. ... --force

then change the base branch in the github PR from master -> staging

See https://nixos.org/nixpkgs/manual/#submitting-changes-staging-branch for more details on staging branch

In #88096 I didn't look into cross compilation so it's probably better to merge this one.

Another difference is that the other PR uses the release archive which doesn't need autoreconf, not sure what is preferable.

@mmilata Oh sorry, this time I didn't look for duplicates because I felt I'd be early enough. Will check next time definetely.

I'd always prefer building from source, as this leverages the hurdle for upstream contributions.

@jonringer Thanks, I know about the staging branch but first wanted to ask ofBorg how much is going to be rebuilt.
