You need to add this package in all-packages.nix.
Could you also squash your commits please?

I think it would be nice to rename the existing argtable to argtable3 (both attribute and directory names).
And also define

argtable = argtable3;

It seems argtable3 (release 2017) is well maintained then argtable2 (release 2011) so we should encourage users to use argtable3. What do you think?

👍 is it possible to change the argtable directory name - or are there other implications ?

Only the attribute name is used by other derivations. So, you can change the directory path.

Thank you for your contributions.
This has been automatically marked as stale because it has had no activity for 180 days.
If this is still important to you, we ask that you leave a comment below. Your comment can be as simple as "still important to me". This lets people see that at least one person still cares about this. Someone will have to do this at most twice a year if there is no other activity.
Here are suggestions that might help resolve this more quickly:

  1. Search for maintainers and people that previously touched the
    related code and @ mention them in a comment.
  2. Ask on the NixOS Discourse. 3. Ask on the #nixos channel on
    irc.freenode.net.
