Things done
  • Tested using sandboxing (nix-build --option build-use-chroot true or nix.useChroot on NixOS)
  • Built on platform(s)
    • NixOS
    • OS X
    • Linux
  • Tested compilation of all pkgs that depend on this change using nix-shell -p nox --run "nox-review wip"
  • Tested execution of all binary files (usually in ./result/bin/)
  • Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.

This is the long-promised plugin system for ibus-table. The idea is that ibus-table-others, for example, is a plugin to ibus-table, and the whole thing is a plugin to ibus. Plugins to ibus-table have already been compiled using a clean ibus-table, and all we have to do is copy the results over.

@laMudri Please correct me if I am wrong, but the ibus wrapper already merges ibus and engines share folders, so the ibus-table-with-plugins- wrapper look redundant.

I think this should be enough:

i18n.inputMethod = {
  enabled = "ibus";
  ibus.engines = with pkgs.ibus-engines; [ table-others ];
};

Hmm, true (with [ table table-others ]). I guess I just didn't expect it to work.

This can be discarded, then.

- **Fix heap-use-after-free crash under high build load** ([NixOS#14772](NixOS/nix#14772))

  Fixed a daemon segfault that could occur under high build load. The issue was caused by the `initialOutputs` field referencing data from an activation frame that had gone out of scope during coroutine tail-call optimization in the build scheduler.

- **Fix segfault when querying non-existent derivation files** ([NixOS#14571](NixOS/nix#14571), [NixOS#14572](NixOS/nix#14572))

  Running `nix derivation show /nix/store/...-doesnotexist.drv` would crash with a segfault. Now properly returns an "invalid store path" error.

- **Fix RestrictedStore::addDependency crash** ([NixOS#14729](NixOS/nix#14729))

  Fixed a crash caused by incorrect non-virtual interface pattern implementation that led to bad recursion/UB in `addDependencyPrep`.

- **Fix "dynamic attributes not allowed in let" regression** ([NixOS#14642](NixOS/nix#14642), [NixOS#14646](NixOS/nix#14646))

  Expressions like `let a = 1; "b" = 2; ${"c"} = 3; in [ a b c ]` that worked in 2.30 would incorrectly fail in 2.32.x. This was caused by the ExprString arena optimization, which has been reverted.

- **Fix fetchGit with `ref = "HEAD"` regression** ([NixOS#13948](NixOS/nix#13948), [NixOS#14672](NixOS/nix#14672))

  `fetchGit { url = "..."; ref = "HEAD"; }` was broken and returned "revspec 'HEAD' not found".

- **Fix unnecessary substituter queries** ([NixOS#14836](NixOS/nix#14836), [NixOS#14837](NixOS/nix#14837))

  Fixed a regression where Nix would query all substituters (including `cache.nixos.org`) even when a higher-priority local substituter already had the path. This caused unnecessary network traffic.

- **Fix curl with c-ares failing DNS resolution in macOS sandbox** ([NixOS#14792](NixOS/nix#14792))

  When curl is built with c-ares (as in recent nixpkgs), DNS resolution would fail inside the Nix build sandbox on macOS with "Could not contact DNS servers".

- **Fix file system race conditions in store optimization** ([NixOS#14676](NixOS/nix#14676), [NixOS#7273](NixOS/nix#7273))

  Multiple fixes to `optimizePath_`:
  - Actually call `remove()` when `rename()` fails
  - Propagate error codes in `createSymlink()`
  - Make `AutoDelete` non-copyable and non-movable to prevent use-after-free

- **Include path in world-writable error messages** ([NixOS#14785](NixOS/nix#14785))

  The error message for world-writable directory checks now includes the specific path that failed, making debugging easier.

- **Documentation: correct `build-dir` error information** ([NixOS#14745](NixOS/nix#14745))

  Fixed out-of-date information in the manual about `build-dir` errors and added links to relevant settings.

- CI improvements: added `upload-release.yml` workflow, improved Docker push workflow configurability, updated magic-nix-cache with post-build-hook fix
- Documented maintainer git tag signing process
- Fixed lowdown override compatibility with newer nixpkgs
- Removed mdbook-linkcheck and added support for mdbook 0.5.x
- Remove static data from headers to fix compilation issues

- CI improvements: added `upload-release.yml` workflow, improved Docker push workflow configurability, updated magic-nix-cache with post-build-hook fix
- Documented maintainer git tag signing process
- Fixed lowdown override compatibility with newer nixpkgs
- Removed mdbook-linkcheck and added support for mdbook 0.5.x
- Remove static data from headers to fix compilation issues
- **Fix heap-use-after-free crash under high build load** ([NixOS#14772](NixOS/nix#14772))

## Bug Fixes

### Critical Crashes Fixed

- **Fix heap-use-after-free crash under high build load** ([NixOS#14772](NixOS/nix#14772))

  Fixed a daemon segfault that could occur under high build load. The issue was caused by the `initialOutputs` field referencing data from an activation frame that had gone out of scope during coroutine tail-call optimization in the build scheduler.

- **Fix segfault when querying non-existent derivation files** ([NixOS#14571](NixOS/nix#14571), [NixOS#14572](NixOS/nix#14572))

  Running `nix derivation show /nix/store/...-doesnotexist.drv` would crash with a segfault. Now properly returns an "invalid store path" error.

- **Fix RestrictedStore::addDependency crash** ([NixOS#14729](NixOS/nix#14729))

  Fixed a crash caused by incorrect non-virtual interface pattern implementation that led to bad recursion/UB in `addDependencyPrep`.

### Regressions Fixed

- **Fix "dynamic attributes not allowed in let" regression** ([NixOS#14642](NixOS/nix#14642), [NixOS#14646](NixOS/nix#14646))

  Expressions like `let a = 1; "b" = 2; ${"c"} = 3; in [ a b c ]` that worked in 2.30 would incorrectly fail in 2.32.x. This was caused by the ExprString arena optimization, which has been reverted.

- **Fix fetchGit with `ref = "HEAD"` regression** ([NixOS#13948](NixOS/nix#13948), [NixOS#14672](NixOS/nix#14672))

  `fetchGit { url = "..."; ref = "HEAD"; }` was broken and returned "revspec 'HEAD' not found".

- **Fix unnecessary substituter queries** ([NixOS#14836](NixOS/nix#14836), [NixOS#14837](NixOS/nix#14837))

  Fixed a regression where Nix would query all substituters (including `cache.nixos.org`) even when a higher-priority local substituter already had the path. This caused unnecessary network traffic.

### Platform-Specific Fixes

- **Fix curl with c-ares failing DNS resolution in macOS sandbox** ([NixOS#14792](NixOS/nix#14792))

  When curl is built with c-ares (as in recent nixpkgs), DNS resolution would fail inside the Nix build sandbox on macOS with "Could not contact DNS servers".

### Store & File System Fixes

- **Fix file system race conditions in store optimization** ([NixOS#14676](NixOS/nix#14676), [NixOS#7273](NixOS/nix#7273))

  Multiple fixes to `optimizePath_`:
  - Actually call `remove()` when `rename()` fails
  - Propagate error codes in `createSymlink()`
  - Make `AutoDelete` non-copyable and non-movable to prevent use-after-free

## Improvements

- **Include path in world-writable error messages** ([NixOS#14785](NixOS/nix#14785))

  The error message for world-writable directory checks now includes the specific path that failed, making debugging easier.

- **Documentation: correct `build-dir` error information** ([NixOS#14745](NixOS/nix#14745))

  Fixed out-of-date information in the manual about `build-dir` errors and added links to relevant settings.

## Maintenance
