dfnWorks is a parallelized computational suite to generate three-dimensional discrete fracture networks (DFN) and simulate flow and transport.

nix provides reproducible (and cached builds) of any software. This means it is possible to always reproduce a build with nix if you for instance provide a revision of the repo with the nix build declarations. E.g.
Anyway, if you have had trouble with e.g. reproducibility and with developers setting up their development environment, nix is a solution to these problems although it has a steep learning curve. I have not included my packaging efforts in nixpkgs (https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs), as I do not know dfnWorks well enough to say if the produced build result, even with examples passing (python3 driver.py for e.g. mapdfn and faults), is completely valid. Let me know if any you actual maintainers have interest in these things! Otherwise, as said at the start, this is just a FYI.
Hey,
This is mostly just a FYI but I have gone through the effort of packaging
