Pre-merge build results

We have automatically built all packages that will get rebuilt due to
this change.

This gives evidence on whether the upgrade will break dependent packages.
Note sometimes packages show up as failed to build independent of the
change, simply because they are already broken on the target branch.

mdbook fails to build because the patch from #459172 wasn't removed.

After removing the patch the nix manual then fails to build.

[nikstur]

Nix and Lix builds are broken with the 0.5 version.

See NixOS/nix#14628 and https://git.lix.systems/lix-project/lix/issues/1051

I suggest we revert as I see no other quick path to a working system.

[Helle-Daryd]

For Lix https://git.lix.systems/lix-project/lix/issues/1051 has been fixed in https://git.lix.systems/lix-project/lix/commit/54df89f601b3b4502a5c99173c9563495265d7e7

This allows building of Lix with any version of mdbook between 0.4.52 and 0.5.1 inclusive.

[nikstur]

We will almost certainly need to introduce a mdbook_0_5 variant because we build old Nix versions that would otherwise break. Thus we need to keep mdbook_0_4 around at least for the next 4 Nix releases unless Nix backports the change to their old versions.

[roberth]

Since at least the mermaid plugin is currently out of sync with the mdbook version, it would be good to move this forward.

I've opened #467009 including patches, for now, because iiuc the Nix team is about to make releases.

I saw that the Lix patches also haven't quite made it into Nixpkgs yet.

If it's useful, here's what I got:

$ nix-build -A lix
[...]
--- stderr ---
 INFO Book building has started
python3: can't open file '/build/source/doc/manual/doc/manual/substitute.py': [Errno 2] No such file or directory
jq: Could not open doc/manual/anchors.jq: No such file or directory
 WARN Error writing the RenderContext to the backend, Broken pipe (os error 32)

ninja: build stopped: subcommand failed.
error: Cannot build '/nix/store/a0zbgkbhb7gripzdkgn79kbgdx7qz45m-lix-2.93.3.drv'

It seems practical to move the conversation to #467009
