zrythm: 1.0.0-beta.4.9.1 -> 1.0.0-beta.6.4.1

[PowerUser64]

Description of changes

Update zrythm to v1.0.0-beta.6.4.1. Please note that I am using overrideAttrs in two places because nixpkgs' gtk and rtaudio are not on new enough versions for zrythm to compile. I was told that using overrideAttrs in buildInputs should be allowed here, but please let me know if this is not true.

Closes #252561
Closes #253765

@PowerUser64 i was trying to build from source in the meantime this PR is reviewed and got an hash error mismatch

steps to reproduce

 nix build github:PowerUser64/nixpkgs/zrythm-6.3-b#zrythm

error

error: hash mismatch in fixed-output derivation '/nix/store/hckfhayyh20p35qhb772dmgsb854bwqz-source.drv':
         specified: sha256-OjUZzU5mqsM+8HkUvSD7E3WPiO+X9uzDwQA4rheJXTg=
            got:    sha256-veRzcxLGP8jkm0qWK98aSfEMv/UFPkgPOT/yRI8jfdc=

the specified hash seems to be the one for gitlab zrythm in this code block

  src = fetchFromGitLab {
    domain = "gitlab.zrythm.org";
    owner = "zrythm";
    repo = "zrythm";
    rev = "v${finalAttrs.version}";
    hash = "sha256-OjUZzU5mqsM+8HkUvSD7E3WPiO+X9uzDwQA4rheJXTg=";
  };

hope this helps

Don't override it. Just wait for #291339

[eclairevoyant]

FYI zrythm seems to be a troublesome program that always uses unreleased gtk/libadwaita versions, so we can never upgrade immediately without overriding

The flatpak guys, yeah

[PowerUser64]

Zrythm is still in beta, so I'm thinking it might be easier to maintain a package once it gets its first stable release. I could be wrong though.

[eclairevoyant]

It's been in alpha for a year and in beta for 2 years more, I'm not sure when a stable release would materialise.

[PowerUser64]

The release should be soon, hopefully in the next few months. There are only 9 issues left on the v1.rc milestone according to the zrythm gitlab. Developing a DAW solo takes a lot of time I guess.

[alex-tee]

Yes v1 RC should be out soon. I don't plan to use any unreleased libadwaita/gtk API anymore for v1 so the latest stable releases should be OK.

Just a nitpick: can you please fetch the source tarball from https://www.zrythm.org/releases/ instead of gitlab? Our Gitlab instance is really only meant to be used for development, not distribution. I want to avoid unnecessary traffic to it.

Also FYI json-glib and libaudec are no longer used so they can be removed from the dependencies.

[PowerUser64]

Thanks for the response and feedback @alex-tee! I'll adjust the source to retrieve from zrythm.org, and remove the old deps! Can't wait for v1!
