The repo assumed a distro with a system-wide Rust, which NixOS does not
provide. This adds a flake devShell carrying the full dependency surface:
- Build: rustc/cargo/clippy/rustfmt, pkg-config, clang (pipewire-sys and
libspa-sys need a real libclang for bindgen, via LIBCLANG_PATH), cmake
(audiopus_sys's vendored-libopus fallback), and git (build.rs stamps
PEERSPEAK_GIT_SHORT from `git rev-parse`).
- Link: alsa-lib, libopus, pipewire.
- dlopen'd at runtime: vulkan-loader, libxkbcommon, wayland and the X11 libs.
Nothing links these, so they never land in the binary's rpath and are
reachable only through LD_LIBRARY_PATH. Omitting them builds fine and then
fails at window creation, which is a confusing way to find out.
- The supply-chain gates CI runs (cargo-deny, cargo-audit) plus cargo-deb.
These were `cargo install`ed on the CachyOS side, which does not carry
over — those binaries link that distro's glibc.
It also carries the screen-share tools (GStreamer + plugin search path,
pactl, mpv). Those look like they belong only to pixelpass, but
tests/screenshare_host_fault.rs starts a REAL pixelpass host, which aborts at
its own preflight without them — so they are a dependency of this test suite.
They are duplicated from pixelpass's flake rather than imported: the two
projects are mutually optional by design, and having one flake consume the
other would reintroduce the build-level dependency that rule prevents.
nixpkgs is pinned to nixos-26.05, the same channel the hosts run, so the
libraries here match the running PipeWire daemon and Vulkan ICD.
Verified: 640 lib tests pass, all 4 screenshare_host_fault live gates pass
(real audio backend, real network bind, real pixelpass child), fmt clean.
Known delta: clippy 1.95.0 (nixpkgs 26.05) flags one collapsible_match in
src/widget/selectable_text.rs that clippy 1.97.1 on CachyOS did not.
Package PeerSpeak for Windows as a single self-contained binary. The GUI
icon, notification chimes, and avatar presets are already embedded via
include_bytes!, and the cross-compiled .exe is statically linked (no extra
DLLs), so the installer payload is just peerspeak.exe plus an .ico.
- src/main.rs: set windows_subsystem = "windows" for release builds so the
GUI launches without a stray console window (debug keeps the console for
stderr/panics).
- packaging/windows/: Inno Setup script (peerspeak.iss), multi-resolution
app icon (peerspeak.ico), and a build README. The installer drops a
Start-menu/desktop shortcut, optionally adds a Windows Firewall allow-rule
(iroh UDP hole-punching), and provides an uninstaller.
- win-cross-build.sh: promote the cross-build helper from a throwaway to the
documented installer build step; .gitignore the staged exe + compiled
setup.exe build artifacts.
Built with Inno Setup 6.7.1 under Wine; binary is unsigned (SmartScreen will
warn until code-signed).

Building packaging/PKGBUILD in place leaves scratch dirs (src/, pkg/,
peerspeak/ clone), the built *.pkg.tar.* and makepkg *.log behind, and
also rewrites pkgver in PKGBUILD. Ignore the scratch outputs so an
in-tree `makepkg` no longer pollutes git status. (Cleanest is still to
build from a copy outside the repo.)
