Public bug reported: The Nim package in Ubuntu 25.10 is missing the `compiler` directory from `/usr/lib/nim/`, which contains essential compiler sources required for building tools and packages.
Steps to reproduce: 1. Install Nim from Ubuntu repositories: `sudo apt install nim` 2. Attempt to build the Atlas tool: `nimble install https://github.com/nim-lang/atlas` 3. Build fails with error: "Error: cannot open file: compiler/ast" Expected behavior: The `compiler` directory should be included in the installation as it is required for building core Nim tools like Atlas and certain packages that depend on compiler internals. Currently, users must either manually clone the Nim repository to obtain the compiler directory or use alternative installation methods. ** Affects: nim (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Project changed: launchpad => nim (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2128967 Title: nim package is missing compiler library directory To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nim/+bug/2128967/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
