Incorrect sorting predicate was found as part of
NixOS/nix#12106 where nix was crashing on the code like:

$ nix eval --expr 'builtins.sort (a: b: true) [ 1 2 3 ]'
...
Aborted (core dumped)

Note: the crash happens here because sorting predicate does not implement isLess and triggers assertion failures for std::stable_sort that backs builtins.sort.

THe change restore isLess semantic for preferable.

Things done

  • Built on platform(s)
    • x86_64-linux
    • aarch64-linux
    • x86_64-darwin
    • aarch64-darwin
  • For non-Linux: Is sandboxing enabled in nix.conf? (See Nix manual)
    • sandbox = relaxed
    • sandbox = true
  • Tested, as applicable:
  • Tested compilation of all packages that depend on this change using nix-shell -p nixpkgs-review --run "nixpkgs-review rev HEAD". Note: all changes have to be committed, also see nixpkgs-review usage
  • Tested basic functionality of all binary files (usually in ./result/bin/)
  • 25.05 Release Notes (or backporting 24.11 and 25.05 Release notes)
    • (Package updates) Added a release notes entry if the change is major or breaking
    • (Module updates) Added a release notes entry if the change is significant
    • (Module addition) Added a release notes entry if adding a new NixOS module
  • Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.

Incorrect sorting predicate was found as part of
NixOS/nix#12106 where `nix` was crashing on
the code like:

    $ nix eval --expr 'builtins.sort (a: b: true) [ 1 2 3 ]'
    ...
    Aborted (core dumped)

Note: the crash happens here because sorting predicate does not
implement `isLess` and triggers assertion failures for
`std::stable_sort` that backs `builtins.sort`.

THe change restore `isLess` semantic for `preferable`.

This should be good, but off the top of my head I can't immediately tell why Ofborg failed with

       error: attribute 'lib' missing

       at /ofborg/checkout/2/repo/38dca4e3aa6bca43ea96d2fcc04e8229/mr-est/ofborg-evaluator-4/pkgs/development/python-modules/torch/default.nix:369:30:

          368|       export CUDNN_INCLUDE_DIR=${lib.getLib cudnn}/include
          369|       export CUDNN_LIB_DIR=${cudnn.lib}/lib

...a riddle for the next morning
