This issue relates to how dependencies in the python portion of this project's build system are managed. This project makes the assumption that as long as there is an available python interpreter, that it is able to manage its dependencies through pip. This, however, isn't true on a number of linux distributions, namely arch linux and NixOS, which manage dependencies centrally through their os package manager. As a result, when attempting to build DiligentTools, the process fails since it is unable to successfully install libclang. Looking at the code causing this problem
we can see that pip is run on every build. Therefore, even if I manually install libclang through my distribution's package manager, it will still fail. I don't really expect platform specific code to accommodate such cases, though that would be nice, but doing a check if the python package even needs to be installed seems pretty sensible, not only in a usability case for such systems, but also for the sake of efficiency. This would at least allow me to manually install the package and continue the build process.
My personal recommendation would be something like this...
I include jinja as well, since it is required, though my build fails on libclang before even getting to jinja. Doing this and then running pip only if these check fail would allow for manual intervention of the user, whereas now, there is simply no way for me to build.

error: externally-managed-environment
× This environment is externally managed
╰─> To install Python packages system-wide, try 'pacman -S
python-xyz', where xyz is the package you are trying to
install.
If you wish to install a non-Arch-packaged Python package,
create a virtual environment using 'python -m venv path/to/venv'.
Then use path/to/venv/bin/python and path/to/venv/bin/pip.
If you wish to install a non-Arch packaged Python application,
it may be easiest to use 'pipx install xyz', which will manage a
virtual environment for you. Make sure you have python-pipx
installed via pacman.
note: If you believe this is a mistake, please contact your Python installation or OS distribution provider. You can override this, at the risk of breaking your Python installation or OS, by passing --break-system-packages.
hint: See PEP 668 for the detailed specification.
