GitHub Actions builds were failing during CMake configure because Eigen was fetched from GitLab and intermittently unavailable there. This updates the CMake dependency source to a GitHub-hosted mirror while preserving the pinned Eigen version.

  • Dependency source update

    • In cmake/eigen.cmake.in, changed Eigen FetchContent_Populate source:
      • from https://gitlab.com/libeigen/eigen
      • to https://github.com/eigen-mirror/eigen
    • Kept GIT_TAG 3.4.0 unchanged to preserve version pinning and dependency behavior.
  • Scope

    • Single-file, surgical change to dependency fetch configuration only.
    • No changes to build logic, targets, or project source code.

If you need me to access, download, or install something from one of these locations, you can either:
