Line 8 in 9ec7625

version = "15.02.1-1.03-5064";

Is there a way to install a more recent version of cura-lulzbot edition?

I guess the pool of people that could update and test this is very limited so feel free to tackle it yourself :)
We can help. How old is the current nixpkgs version vs upstream ? https://code.alephobjects.com/w/cura-lulzbot/

Can you test #61054?

[jrobinson-uk]

Happy to, not 100% sure on the process for testing that pull request. do in build off a local version of nixpkgs with that pull applied. Can you point me in the right direction?

@jrobinson-uk The one-line command to try this out would be:

nix run -f https://github.com/charles-dyfis-net/nixpkgs/archive/modernize-cura-lulzbot.tar.gz curaLulzbot -c cura-lulzbot

You could also manually clone the git repository of the PR and build it:

git clone https://github.com/charles-dyfis-net/nixpkgs
cd nixpkgs
git checkout modernize-cura-lulzbot
nix-build -A curaLulzbot
./result/bin/cura-lulzbot

But curaLulzbot failed to build when I just tried it, so please wait a bit.

EDIT: the cura binary is apparently called cura-lulzbot

@jrobinson-uk, ...if you want to try the instructions gebner provided, I just updated the PR to roll the patch behind the now-broken link inline.

@jrobinson-uk, ...FYI, the PR is now updated to 3.6.15.

I'm using it happily myself, but reports (of success or failure) would be very welcome.
