Description

On NixOS when running cmake there is no network access. I did not find a way to download the files before, and then give cmake a path to the downloaded files, to make it work under NixOS.

Research direction

No file or test is named. Start by locating the CMake logic that downloads dependencies and reproduce the build with network access disabled on NixOS. Done means the required files can be provided locally and the project builds without contacting the network.
