Hey. I’m trying to get vcpkg to work under NixOS. It has required some workarounds, but it’s currently working fine.
However, when compiling the vcpkg port gettext-libintl, I get the following error:
CMake Error at ports/gettext-libintl/portfile.cmake:4 (message):
When targeting Linux, `libintl.h` is expected to come from the C Runtime
Library (glibc). Please use "sudo apt-get install libc-dev" or the
equivalent to install development files.
Adding libintl and libiconv to buildInputs does not work.
I tried to add glibc.dev to buildInputs, but this causes another error (see this post)
I cannot patch the #include, as it’s a runtime dependency.

Is there something I’m missing?
Thanks
