Faust in NixOS 22.05

NixOS 22.05 contains Faust version 2.40.0.

If you want to use the alsa-qt architecture, you need to apply an upstream patch, because the architecture file as provided in this version does not compile.

Simply add the following overlay:


   (self: super: {
       faust = super.faust.overrideAttrs (old: {
         patches = (old.patches or [ ]) ++ [
           (super.fetchpatch {
             url =
               "https://github.com/grame-cncm/faust/commit/cf80f4c94ac979922892a7f594121358cd178708.patch";
             sha256 = "sha256-MMFgCzAT33kwnBGvydyoqxJmMjWpxyF9Okjk1rMmrcw=";
           })
         ];
       });
     })
