`xdg-desktop-portal-hyprland` (xdph) is a fork of `xdg-desktop-portal-wlr`
(xdpw), which supports window sharing and region sharing (currently broken),
apart from output (per-screen) sharing.
Due to the internal workings, `xdph` depends on the Hyrpland package for
getting the window list. However, we cannot make a cross-dependency betwen
the Hyprland flake and the `xdph` flake.
The best solution we found to make everything work properly was to override
the Hyprland package that `xdph` builds with.
In the Hyprland flake, it's done like this:
```nix
xdg-desktop-portal-hyprland = inputs.xdph.packages.${prev.system}.default.override {
hyprland-share-picker = inputs.xdph.packages.${prev.system}.hyprland-share-picker.override {inherit hyprland;};
};
```
A similar override is being done inside the NixOS module, which means you don't
have to tinker with it if you use the module.
If you don't use the module, you will want to do a similar override in your
configuration.
