fix(desktop): build hermes-desktop with corrected Electron 43.6.0 headers hash
Upstream hermes-agent v2026.8.31 pins sha256-f8bSb… for the artifacts.electronjs.org v43.6.0 headers tarball. The CDN swapped that artifact, breaking every desktop build with a fixed-output derivation hash mismatch (specified f8bSb… vs got xDgc5…). Local copy of upstream nix/desktop.nix with: - verified hash for electron 43.6.0 (nix store prefetch-file) - per-version hash map with a loud throw for unknown versions - icon/desktop-entry paths resolved against the flake input checkout Remove once upstream ships the corrected hash and the hermes-agent input is bumped past that release.

# hermes-desktop.nix — local copy of hermes-agent's nix/desktop.nix
|
||||
#
|
||||
# WORKAROUND for an upstream build failure (hermes-agent v2026.8.31):
|
||||
#
|
||||
# Upstream pins sha256-f8bSbLRmtbP93CJAvEBs+sHWDZ1xP2bcpLhC1EnOmZU=
|
||||
# for https://artifacts.electronjs.org/headers/dist/v43.6.0/node-v43.6.0-headers.tar.gz
|
||||
# The Electron CDN swapped that artifact, so the pinned hash no longer
|
||||
# matches what the server serves today (verified 2026-09-12 via
|
||||
# `nix store prefetch-file`). Upstream has fixed this class of breakage
|
||||
# repeatedly ("fix electron headers sha" commits); main is not fixed yet.
|
||||
#
|
||||
# Differences from upstream nix/desktop.nix:
|
||||
# 1. electron headers sha256 per electron version, with a clear throw
|
||||
# for unknown versions (upstream hardcodes one hash).
|
||||
# 2. icon.png / linux_desktop_entry.py resolve against `hermesSrc`
|
||||
# (the flake input checkout) instead of relative repo paths.
|
||||
#
|
||||
# REMOVE THIS FILE and the hermesDesktopFixed let-binding in default.nix
|
||||
# once upstream ships the corrected hash and the hermes-agent input is
|
||||
# bumped past that release.
