Description

When I try to build the retrom-service package with the newest nixpkgs I get the following error:

error: fetchPnpmDeps fetcherVersion = 3 is no longer supported for pnpm_11. Please upgrade to the latest, see https://nixos.org/manual/nixpkgs/stable/#javascript-pnpm-fetcherVersion.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Upgrade the pnpm fetcherVersion from 3 to the latest version in the Nix expression for retrom service, as per the error message and the Nixpkgs manual.
