    Quickly locate nix packages with specific files [maintainers=@bennofs @figsoda @raitobezarius]

  • Look at the library missing say X Use nix-locate to find the derivation that includes libX.dylib file (if it can’t find the macOS dylib version of the file try using the same name for linux by changing dylib for so) Add the derivation to you environmental and try again It will find the next missing library on the next compile.

    Go to the project read me and add all derivations for the documented dependencies. It can be difficult to match names from other systems to nix, https://search.nixos.org can be of help in this case
