No description provided.

The upstream src URL for the patch appears to no longer exist. Per discussion in
NixOS#39927, the upstream URL is not stable,
so this commit inlines the patch in the nixpkgs src tree.

(cherry picked from commit 17f5001)

I don't expect most people would notice, due to cache.nixos.org

copying path '/nix/store/1d15qk8k5ysb4xc7z4m4d72jh05nji2r-CVE-2014-5461.patch' from 'https://cache.nixos.org'...

Hi @vcunat, thanks for merging. If you don't mind, I'd like to understand something.

I don't expect most people would notice, due to cache.nixos.org
copying path '/nix/store/1d15qk8k5ysb4xc7z4m4d72jh05nji2r-CVE-2014-5461.patch' from 'https://cache.nixos.org'...

Would that be before or after the present patch? Because before, it was being downloaded from an external resource.

The reason for the patch: when I installed Calibre by adding it to my configuration.nix and rebuilding , the rebuild triggered a compilation, which failed early at the lua patch fetch. As you can imagine from the PR, I run vanilla 18.03.

When I then rebuilt the system pointing at my pckgs tree (release18.03 plus the lua patch), the rebuild took approx 32h on my i7 laptop.

So my guess is that the cache situation you point out is post-17f50018c0ca87e196882c0ba4aee68703e3fcf0

No, that's before this PR. You can see that from the name of the patch. calibre is also fully cached on the current 18.03 channel version.
