Packaging details

• Pins upstream commit a1345169edbd76bef4a69e2a37f96bf8771a577d.
• Uses python312Packages.buildPythonApplication.
• Patches the upstream evdev requirement from 1.7.1 to 1.7.0.
• Disables the package test phase.
• Exposes only an x86_64-linux flake output in the current revision.

Access to Linux input devices may require suitable group membership or udev rules. Consult the upstream project for runtime behavior and device-access requirements.

Development

git clone https://github.com/RevolunixOS/pkg-numlockw.git
cd pkg-numlockw
nix build
nix fmt

The homepage field in package.nix currently points to an unrelated template repository and should be corrected when the package is updated.
