Project description
From now on I don't think it's necessary to download and patch binaries, given that we can build straight from the source repo. It requires CMake, which I don't even know how to handle even in a more traditional distro, which is why I'm asking for help here.
The version in the unstable channel is 2019.3.46, while in nixos 19.09 it's 2019.2.39; both of which are marked as unfree and built as patched binaries, even though their source is now available.

Thanks for all!
Generally, you add cmake into nativeBuildInputs and see if it builds. Setup hook will set the appropriate phases for you. You might need to adjust cmakeFlags, and, likely, patch something as no-one knows how to write CMakeLists.txt correctly.
I'm currently trying to do just that: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/73974
Currently, I'm a bit stumped. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you for your contributions.

If this is still important to you, we ask that you leave a comment below. Your comment can be as simple as "still important to me". This lets people see that at least one person still cares about this. Someone will have to do this at most twice a year if there is no other activity.
Here are suggestions that might help resolve this more quickly:
Ooh nice bot! From what I can see, it's still downloading binaries so I guess it's still unresolved. I might probably try to get to this during summer vacation I guess.
I think there is also a new version out
This is resolved per #95530.
