The build.rs script shipped with evdev-sys attempts to detect cross compilation and uses a completely different codepath which does a
git fetch
inside the build script. This doesn't work in nixpkgs.This PR adds a
touch libevdev/.git
to trick thebuild.rs
into thinking that it is not necessary to do agit fetch
.Thanks to @figsoda for finding this more-elegant solution to the problem (my original solution needed to patch
build.rs
):#224893 (review)
