This patch packages mu4e as an Emacs lisp package based on the mu4e
output of the multiple-output package mu, which makes mu4e a good
citizen of Emacs lisp packages in two aspects.
First, mu4e now utilizes the Emacs lisp package infrastructure in
Nixpkgs. This allows users who want to do AOT native compilation for
non-default Emacs variants[0] to build only mu4e itself instead of the
whole mu package[1].
Second, mu4e now conforms to the Emacs builtin package manager[2].
Without this patch, mu4e autoloaded commands do not work
out-of-the-box[3] because its directory is added to load-path by
site-start.el after the initialization of package-directory-list,
which causes package-activate-all to not load mu4e-autoloads.el. This
patch fixes this issue when mu4e is installed to Emacs using the
withPackages wrapper[4].
[0]: such as emacs-pgtk
[1]: mu.override { emacs = emacs-pgtk; }
[2]: package.el
[3]: either (require 'mu4e) or (require 'mu4e-autoloads) is needed to
be called before an autoloaded command is called
[4]: emacs-pgtk.pkgs.withPackages (epkgs: [ epkgs.mu4e ])

Other Project Repositories
The sources of all official Nix-related projects are in the NixOS organization on GitHub. Here are some of the main ones:
- Nix - the purely functional package manager
- NixOps - the tool to remotely deploy NixOS machines
- nixos-hardware - NixOS profiles to optimize settings for different hardware
- Nix RFCs - the formal process for making substantial changes to the community
- NixOS homepage - the NixOS.org website
- hydra - our continuous integration system
- NixOS Artwork - NixOS artwork
Continuous Integration and Distribution
Nixpkgs and NixOS are built and tested by our continuous integration system, Hydra.
- Continuous package builds for unstable/master
- Continuous package builds for the NixOS 23.05 release
- Tests for unstable/master
- Tests for the NixOS 23.05 release
Artifacts successfully built with Hydra are published to cache at https://cache.nixos.org/. When successful build and test criteria are met, the Nixpkgs expressions are distributed via Nix channels.
Contributing
Nixpkgs is among the most active projects on GitHub. While thousands of open issues and pull requests might seem a lot at first, it helps consider it in the context of the scope of the project. Nixpkgs describes how to build tens of thousands of pieces of software and implements a Linux distribution. The GitHub Insights page gives a sense of the project activity.
Community contributions are always welcome through GitHub Issues and Pull Requests.

Donations
The infrastructure for NixOS and related projects is maintained by a nonprofit organization, the NixOS Foundation. To ensure the continuity and expansion of the NixOS infrastructure, we are looking for donations to our organization.
You can donate to the NixOS foundation through SEPA bank transfers or by using Open Collective:
