DraftSight is "a professional-grade 2D design and drafting solution
that lets you create, edit, view and markup any kind of 2D drawing."
It is available as a binary .deb package for Linux. This package jumps
through the necessary hoops to make it run properly.
This attempts to fix the issue described at
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/22219#issuecomment-291801133.
Any change to the custom packages passed to RStudio causes this to
completely rebuild RStudio, which is completely unnecessary and also a
bit of a hindrance as it's a fairly slow build.
This rolls back most of that old PR, and instead implements something
more like rWrapper. Existing configurations with the old useRPackages
will break.
This adds a fairly basic build for just the binaries for the Google
Cloud Print CUPS connector (gcp-cups-connector), and gcp-connector-util
to set it up in the first place. In the future I would like to
streamline the configuration more and make gcp-cups-connector a
proper NixOS service - as right now it must be run by hand.
https://nixos.org/nixpkgs/manual/#r-packages contains a method for
setting up an R environment with a specific set of libraries, and it
creates an R wrapper which points R to those libraries.
The package RStudio relies on the standard R package, which then
cannot access any of the libraries specified in a custom R
environment. While one may easily use pkgs.rstudio.override to change
rstudio's R dependency to the custom R environment, this accomplishes
nothing because while RStudio runs the correct R wrapper it clears out
the environment variable R_LIBS_SITE - and so it is still unable to
use any of those packages.
In order to work around this problem, these changes allow the user to
optionally modify rstudio's wrapper to set environment variable
R_PROFILE_USER to an R script which sets R's .libPaths(..) to point to
the same libraries; that script is generated from R_LIBS_SITE in the R
wrapper.
By default, this change has no effect. If R is overridden to
something else, and if useRPackages is changed from its default of
false, then the change described above is made; for instance:
{
packageOverrides = pkgs: let self = pkgs.pkgs; in
rec {
rEnv = pkgs.rWrapper.override {
packages = with self.rPackages; [
dplyr ggplot2 e1071 rpart reshape
];
};
rstudioEnv = pkgs.rstudio.override { R = rEnv; useRPackages = true; };
};
}
