From fa3948a7c5bf12357080b3b9277bfe28db69e8aa Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Maximilian Bosch Date: Mon, 15 Jun 2020 13:17:05 +0200 Subject: citrix_workspace: add more features, refactor derivation In #89806 it has been reported that the final package is missing a lot of features like support for the self-service GUI and the config-management. While working on supporting those components in the Nix-package, I decided to refactor the package to simplify the entire setup. This patch changes the following things: * Binaries and libraries are patched using the `autoPatchelfHook` to avoid having unneeded libraries linked (e.g. some programs use gtk2, others use gtk3). * Moved source-declarations into their own file. * Wrapped `configmgr` and `selfservice` and added those to `$out/bin`. * Don't mention the old `citrix_receiver`-packages in the manual anymore since those packages were removed in 19.09 and are EOLed anyways.

Custom certificates - The Citrix Workspace App in nixpkgs trust several certificates from the Mozilla database by default. However several companies using Citrix might require their own corporate certificate. On distros with imperative packaging these certs can be stored easily in $ICAROOT, however this directory is a store path in nixpkgs.
