can't compile flake example

[henrispriet]

I tried running the flake example like in the readme, but cmake is failng somehow. I'm using nix on Ubuntu 22 LTS.

Change Dir: '/build/ignition-cmake_0.6.1-source/build/CMakeFiles/CMakeScratch/TryCompile-GLJQ5p'

    Run Build Command(s): /nix/store/jacf2kn4dfj99c3ywbvfyg6w53xvxsfl-cmake-3.27.8/bin/cmake -E env VERBOSE=1 /nix/store/05sqpqfnha0pmb5aia3gz968im7n806v-gnumake-4.4.1/bin/make -f Makefile cmTC_fe38f/fast

The commands I ran and the full output below:

This looks like a problem with your system. Can you build other Nix packages?

[henrispriet]

Yes I can

[henrispriet]

I've noticed that every time I run these commands (nix develop and then nix log) the directory it tries to change to changes. Some script somewhere tries to cd to /build/ignition-cmake_0.6.1-source/build/CMakeFiles/CMakeScratch/TryCompile-xxxxxx where xxxxxx seem to be randomly generated. Then it says there is no such file or directory.

It was indeed a problem with my installation (I'm sorry to have doubted you :P). I uninstalled and reinstalled with the determinate installer.
