You might want to try haskell.nix in the meantime

It’s also such a bad idea due to App Store rules. You’re better off using xcodenv.

nobody really puts effort into maintaining Android and iOS upstream in Nixpkgs so they don't really work

Hello. I am trying to clean up my build process. I am attempting to use the arm-embedded cross pkg. My derivation looks something like

{
  pkgs,
  stdenv,
  optLevel ? "debug",
}:

stdenv.mkDerivation {
  nativeBuildInputs = with pkgs.pkgsBuildHost; [meson ninja gnused srecord];

  name = "Jordan";
  src = pkgs.lib.cleanSource ./.;
  doCheck = false;

  mesonBuildType = optLevel;
  dontStrip = true;
  strictDeps = true;
}

and then it is called with

default = pkgs.pkgsCross.arm-embedded.callPackage ./default.nix {};

This fails with the error

error: attribute 'version' missing

The build target is armv6m, and I am building on x86. Is there some way to provide it the info it needs?

Note that if I instance a dedicated cross instance with

armPkgs = import nixpkgs { crossSystem = { config = "armv6m-none-none-eabi"; libc="newlib"; }; };
armPkgs.callPackage ./default.nix {};

It almost works (it gets to the build stage but hits an error I've not seen with the arm-embedded compiler), but it requires compiling GCC from source.
