Nix build broken

[tbaumann]

I just wanted to give it a quick try with nix run github:zokrezyl/yetty

Unfortunately the nix build is broken.

nix log /nix/store/1m7wx19ij684lvgbsx5vqr6hls6133m5-yetty-0.1.0.drv
STDIN
Running phase: unpackPhase
@nix { "action": "setPhase", "phase": "unpackPhase" }

@nix { "action": "setPhase", "phase": "patchPhase" }
substitute(): ERROR: file 'build-tools/cmake/targets/linux.cmake' does not exist

Indeed, build-tools/cmake/ doesn't exist (anymore?).

I'm just passing by, I won't have the time and energy to fix it.

Thanks for reporting this. The Nix derivation fell behind during the cross-platform build-system refactoring and still references the previous CMake layout.

Restoring it requires more than updating those paths: the current build consumes a substantial set of platform-specific prebuilt dependencies that are not currently represented as Nix derivations. We will investigate a maintainable way to restore Nix support on Linux and macOS, but cannot yet commit to a fully reproducible source build.

We will keep this issue open while we assess the practical options. In the meantime, please use the release installer or the regular CMake/Make build targets.
