Ah, this is my bad, oops. I forgot that Alacritty.app is generated in the postBuild using a Makefile (which isn't called with the --target flag as buildRustPackage now uses). It only worked prior to merging #82342 because releaseDir was the same as target/release...

Maybe we could sed that flag into the Makefile, so there aren't two compilations happening? Either way, thanks for catching this.

(I forgot borg does actually build on Darwin if the submitter is a trusted user, which is why I pinged it to build above... oops x2.)

no worries :)

Thanks, this seems a better solution.
I manually installed Alacritty.app because modifying the Makefile would get cumbersome

A much more elegant solution than seding -- thanks! I had never really looked at the Makefile, so I guess it makes sense that this is relatively easy.

borg is happy, so I'm happy (assuming this works as expected on darwin).
