Unfree packages aren't distributed by our binary cache due to legal reasons[1] and are usually a prebuilt binary that requires some patching. When using distributed builds[2], those are uploaded to another build machine as fixed-output derivations from `fetchurl` are built locally[3] which takes a certain amount of time and resources with almost no gain as the build process is trivial in contrast to the up/download to a remote builder. This is why I figured that at least some of the packages should be explicitly built locally, I've done something simlar for `citrix_workspace` already in the past[4]. The following packages are affected by this: * `idea.*` (excluding free derivatives) * `xmind` * `teamviewer` [1] https://nixos.wiki/wiki/FAQ/How_can_I_install_a_proprietary_or_unfree_package%3F#More_precision [2] https://nixos.wiki/wiki/Distributed_build [3] |
