Toma | In reply to @dramforever:matrix.org why the hell is there cmakeFlags and mesonFlags in pkgs/stdenv/generic/make-derivation.nix I was very surprised too when I first encountered it. | 11:36:27 |
Toma | I'm guessing it is there so that splicing/cross doesn't make us use targetPackages or other hacky things (because cmake goes into nativeBuildInputs, shifting the offset) just a guess, though | 11:44:01 |
