 quapka4 | Hi, I struggle a bit with building one package, that expects OPENSSL_INSTALL_DIR pointing to the directory containing the lib directory with the lib<name>.so files. However openssl.out points to bin and lib.makeLibraryPath [ openssl ] gives the /lib suffix. What I did is:
cmakeFlags = [
( "-DOPENSSL_INSTALL_DIR=" + lib.makeLibraryPath [ openssl ] + "/.." )
];
However, is there a clearer way how to get the path to the lib derivation output without the `lib` part?

 Qyriad | @quapka4 "-DOPENSSL_INSTALL_DIR=${lib.getLib openssl}/lib"? | 14:58:32 |
| Qyriad | Oh wait, you want without the lib suffix? lib.getLib openssl | 14:59:22 |
| Qyriad | Oh wait, you want without the /lib suffix? Then just lib.getLib openssl | 14:59:28 |

 Gaétan Lepage | Hey,
Is it possible to escape a ${foo} in a nix string ? | 17:10:39 |
 Philip Taron (UTC-8) | Welcome to Nix 2.18.5. Type :? for help.
nix-repl> ''
''${foo}
''
"\${foo}\n"
nix-repl> ''''${foo}''
"\${foo}"
| 17:14:25 |
 emily | just putting this here to scare you ''''\'''${a}'' | 17:18:06 |
| Gaétan Lepage | Thanks... I'm not super sure to make it work in my case though
substituteInPlace src/python/CMakeLists.txt \
--replace-fail "find_package(pybind11 ${PYBIND11_VER} QUIET)" "find_package(pybind11 QUIET)"
| 17:18:10 |
| emily | pybind11 ''${PYBIND11_VER} | 17:18:20 |
| Gaétan Lepage | which is already in a postPatch = '' | 17:18:28 |
| emily | welcome to the worst string syntax in the universe! | 17:18:30 |
| emily | oh, but also your "" will cause problems | 17:18:43 |
| emily | because bash will also try to expand it | 17:18:47 |
| emily | so you need 'find_package(pybind11 ''${PYBIND11_VER} QUIET)' | 17:18:53 |
| Gaétan Lepage | ERROR: pattern find_package\(pybind11\ \ QUIET\) doesn't match anything | 17:18:59 |
| emily | In reply to @emilazy:matrix.org
because bash will also try to expand it because ^ | 17:19:09 |
| Gaétan Lepage | Ok, so going with a proper patch file might be the best option here then | 17:19:32 |
