     Insync is a commercial application that syncs your Drive files to your
     computer.  It has more advanced features than Google's official client
     such as multiple account support, Google Doc conversion, symlink support,
     and built in sharing.

     There is a 15-day free trial, and it is a paid application after that.

Add the missing dependencies to --libs or use `--ignore-missing="foo.so.1 bar.so etc.so"`.

builds (but looks not to work) when commenting out the rm lines in installPhase

What is a proper way of building/testing the changes

  • especially the install phase (and here auto-patchelf)

Have you… Actually tried adding that dependency? It’s qtserialport in nixpkgs land.

Maybe add an ls -l lib before the rm statements so you can see if the lib directory is even present.
