Due to dependency changes in GridSync these expressions no longer successfully build a package. In the future, we should try again with a tool like mach-nix which can read the same dependency information as the Python packaging tools. This reduced duplication will hopefully make it easier to keep the Nix expressions up to date and working. Additionally, we should have CI for the Nix packaging so that developers are reminded when they need to do something extra to keep the Nix packages working.

Please let me know if there's anything that I (and/or possibly @tomprince?) could do facilitate restoring nix packaging for Gridsync in the future. |

Yep, will do. I have something that seems to work, actually, but I don't think it makes sense to try to push it into GridSync yet (I want it to come with CI configuration, at least, which I don't have). |
