Motivation for this change

The hook was executed twice, also in the basicEnv.

Things done
  • Tested using sandboxing (nix.useSandbox on NixOS, or option sandbox in nix.conf on non-NixOS)
  • 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 nix-review --run "nix-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)
  • Assured whether relevant documentation is up to date
  • Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.

maybe I'm stupid, but where is the second (not removed) execution of postBuild?

it's happening via basicEnv, which gets passed the args containing postBuild. So if we instead call it via basicEnv = (callPackage ../bundled-common {}) (removeAttrs args [ "postBuild" ]); we don't get a double execution.
I'm not 100% sure what the original intent was, but I know that at least for the homesick, the double postBuild resulted in a double execution, messing a bit with the executable it was patching.

The only time I could see this being useful is if somebody wanted to modify the wrapped executables, which I think should never be required.
