##### `propagatedNativeBuildInputs` {#var-stdenv-propagatedNativeBuildInputs}

The propagated equivalent of `nativeBuildInputs`. This would be called `depsBuildHostPropagated` but for historical continuity. For example, if package `Y` has `propagatedNativeBuildInputs = [X]`, and package `Z` has `buildInputs = [Y]`, then package `Z` will be built as if it included package `X` in its `nativeBuildInputs`. If instead, package `Z` has `nativeBuildInputs = [Y]`, then `Z` will be built as if it included `X` in the `depsBuildBuild` of package `Z`, because of the sum of the two `-1` host offsets.
