the appium-inspector package only supports linux as a platform, not sure why nixpkgs-review-gha tries to build it on darwin.

[donovanglover]

Try changing inherit (electron.meta) platforms; to platforms = lib.platforms.linux; (ofborg tries to build on darwin too)

[NyCodeGHG]

Oh I see what the problem is, electron_34.meta.platforms evaluates to different platforms, depending on what hostPlatform you're evaluating for.

$ nix-instantiate --eval -A electron_34.meta.platforms --system aarch64-darwin
[ "x86_64-darwin" "x86_64-linux" "armv7l-linux" "aarch64-linux" "aarch64-darwin" ]
$ nix-instantiate --eval -A electron_34.meta.platforms --system x86_64-linux
[ "aarch64-linux" "armv5tel-linux" "armv6l-linux" "armv7a-linux" "armv7l-linux" "i686-linux" "loongarch64-linux" "m68k-linux" "microblaze-linux" "microblazeel-linux" "mips-linux" "mips64-linux" "mips64el-linux" "mipsel-linux" "powerpc64-linux" "powerpc64le-linux" "riscv32-linux" "riscv64-linux" "s390-linux" "s390x-linux" "x86_64-linux" ]
