     The propagation logic has been changed. The new logic, along with new
     types of dependencies that go with, is thoroughly documented in the
     "Specifying dependencies" section of the "Standard Environment" chapter of
     the nixpkgs manual.
<!-- That's <xref linkend="ssec-stdenv-attributes"> were we to merge the manuals. -->
     The old logic isn't but is easy to describe: dependencies were propagated
     as the same type of dependency no matter what. In practice, that means
     that many <function>propagatedNativeBuildInputs</function> should instead
     be <function>propagatedBuildInputs</function>. Thankfully, that was and is
     the least used type of dependency. Also, it means that some
     <function>propagatedBuildInputs</function> should instead be
     <function>depsTargetTargetPropagated</function>. Other types dependencies
     should be unaffected.
