These overlay packages will be removed once the extensions are updated to use the new `buildPgrxExtension` function.
The previously used version was failing to build:

This was discussed upstream here: https://postgr.es/m/0a997455-5aba-4cf2-a354-d26d8bcbfae6%40technowledgy.de Also applied by nixpkgs here: NixOS/nixpkgs#342026
We cannot use nodejs.libv8 as it is too new for plv8 3.1. We will be able to use it with plv8 3.2.
dbmate 2.27 is now using a varchar for the version column in the schema_migrations table. See amacneil/dbmate#641
Updated nixpkgs, rust-overlay, and nix-fast-build to latest versions.
Removed duplicate substituteInPlace calls that were redundantly applied during previous merge operations. Cleaned up the patch application to avoid duplicate substitutions.
Keep revision support that was accidentally simplified during nixpkgs update. Restores conditional logic to support building orioledb from specific git revision hashes instead of only tags.
These files were moved to subdirectories and the old .nix files should be removed since they were moved to new directory structure with default.nix files.
Remove nixpkgs-go124 dependency since current nixpkgs has Go 1.25.4 which is sufficient for packer. Remove nix-fast-build input as unused and add follows directives to resolve duplicate dependencies.
Run flake-linter to eliminate duplicate dependencies, and remove unused cargo-pgrx / rustc versions hashes.
Move pgrouting.nix to pgrouting/default.nix and groonga package to pgroonga/groonga.nix. Update imports and fix relative paths for versions.json and patch files.
Replace inline bash script generation with writeShellScriptBin for rustc wrapper that filters empty postmaster_stub.rs arguments. Apply wrapper only for pgrx < 0.12 since issue was fixed upstream in pgrx#1435 and pgrx#1441.
Move nixpkgs-oldstable import to a let binding to avoid importing it three times...
Remove supabase-groonga from global flake packages and import it locally in pgroonga extension instead. Other components access groonga via pgroonga.passthru.groonga since groonga is only used by pgroonga.
The supabase-groonga package was moved to pgroonga extension in commit 1f0ed1f, but Ansible was still trying to install it separately causing build failures.
This reverts commit 55474686405394826ad07a032cbcf0e36a924554.
This reverts commit cfa9bcb92219f391469ae743f95c8856b0a99561.
Remove references to darwin.apple_sdk.frameworks.{IOKit,CoreFoundation}
which have been deprecated in nixpkgs. Disable CGO to avoid Darwin
framework dependencies entirely.
Build nixosTest using a local aarch64 linux builder and run nixosTest qemu VM in aarch64 darwin. This keeps the tests fast as they don't require nested virtualisation. For example, you can run the nixos test for the http extension on your aarch64 macOS with: ```shell nix build .\#checks.aarch64-darwin.ext-http ```

Current system value has been moved into `pkgs.stdenv.hostPlatform` by NixOS/nixpkgs#456527
The tests were unnecessarily wrapping psql_15 with postgresqlWithExtension when psql_15 already includes the extensions.

Running NixOS tests on macOS requires a Linux VM capable of building
NixOS VMs. This adds a nix-darwin configuration that provisions an
ephemeral QEMU linux-builder with support for aarch64-linux and
x86_64-linux builds.
Usage:
nix run github:supabase/postgres#setup-darwin-linux-builder
Enables running NixOS integration tests from macOS development machines
(see #1989).
