There was a problem hiding this comment.
pytest-cov, pylint and flake8 should be removed. They only check cosmetic stuff and often break for no good reason.

No, never really did, I just noticed the broken package when checking out buku at the time. I agree with this change. |

Motivation for this change
bukuserver (an optional web GUI frontend for buku) depends on a large number of flask packages, which break in nixpkgs very often - I've been forced to remove buku from my system closure at least a couple times a year at this point, even though I have no use for this web interface. It currently does not build, which means buku cannot be used at all.
Once #156188 (or something similar that fixes flask-admin) is landed, it will at least build and can be turned back on by default - though with buku being primarily a command-line tool (plus optional browser extensions that can serve as an interface too), it seems unlikely that a majority of users even use this interface to begin with? We could also maybe consider adding
pkgs.bukuserverrather than building them both together.Things done
