New Package: Google Cloud SDK

[aaronlevin]

This is my first non-Haskell package. Google manages this package strangely: it's not version'd, uses $HOME during installation, etc. Hopefully I did the right things (I tried to look at other similar packages for inspiration).

[edolstra]

Descriptions should be very concise, e.g. Tools and libraries for managing Google Cloud Platform resources.

[aaronlevin]

@edolstra I made the updates. Looking into why Travis CI is reporting a failure (something about python 3.4 which is odd because I specify python 2.7). Currently compiling locally but it's doing the jdk from scratch so it'll take a bit.

[aaronlevin]

@edolstra this seems to be building now.

After fixing the SHA256:

@aristidb could be a regression on google's part? I will remove the sha check and retry.

[aaronlevin]

@aristidb I've updated SHA. How do we manage artifacts whose SHAs might change?

[aaronlevin]

@aristidb I just rebased onto HEAD and ran nix-build -A google-cloud-sdk without any issue.

[aristidb]

There's some discussion about how to deal with such artifacts in #4542

I'm afraid we don't really have a good solution.

[aristidb]

No, this is not a regression. I still have the same problem.

You probably don't use chroot builds, so network accessing during build time work. They're highly impure though.

I can't add packages that don't build in chroot.

[aaronlevin]

@aristidb I will look into the issues wrt to chroot. Any specific instructions to force it to build with chroot? (I've not looked too deeply into how exactly chroot works).

[7c6f434c]

Usually pre-downloading the things that the package tries to download works. Julia programming language is an example, I think.

[7c6f434c]

@aaronlevin Do I understand it right that this currently works only without chroot builds enabled?

[aaronlevin]

@7c6f434c It was working for me until I performed an upgrade and then receive a similar error. So, perhaps we should close this PR without merging.

[domenkozar]

@aaronlevin cool, let us know if you want to pursue the issue or close PR

[aaronlevin]

@iElectric I will close this PR and submit a new one if I have time to figure out the nuances with this package. Thanks!
