Hello,
I'd like to distribute this (so it seems) excellent software to Nixpkgs - the package collection of Nix - the purely functional package manager.
A pure functional package manager is a package manager that doesn't allow a build process access the internet during the build. As such, we cannot use
conanin our build processes like others. That's why we have no choice but to patchscippto accommodate to using our externally built dependencies. I managed to do that with this patch.This PR is also a good opportunity to report that I managed to build the project with llnl-units 0.13.1 (related to #3697) :). If you'd accept this change, the new
USE_CONANCMake option should be mentioned somewhere in https://scipp.github.io/development/getting-started.html - not sure where yet.
