I have to use the Exceed TurboX client to access a remote desktop. It uses a proprietary binary launcher called from a browser web interface. The launcher downloads the etxc binary client program to establish a connection to a remote desktop.
In nixos-22.05 I was using buildFHSUserEnv in flake and everything did work

inputs = {
# nixpkgs.url = github:NixOS/nixpkgs/f09ad462c5a121d0239fde645aacb2221553a217;
nixpkgs.url = "github:NixOS/nixpkgs/nixos-22.11";
};
outputs = { self, nixpkgs }:
let
callPackageUnfree = pkg:
with import nixpkgs {
system = "x86_64-linux";
config.allowUnfree = true;
}; callPackage pkg;
in rec {
packages.x86_64-linux.etx-launcher =
callPackageUnfree ./pkgs/applications/networking/remote/etx-launcher { };
defaultPackage.x86_64-linux = packages.x86_64-linux.etx-launcher;
etxEnv = with import nixpkgs { system = "x86_64-linux"; };
pkgs.buildFHSUserEnv {
name = "etx-env";
targetPkgs = pkgs: (with pkgs;
[ gdk-pixbuf
glib
glibc
gtk3-x11
libkrb5
]) ++ (with pkgs.xorg;
[ libX11
libXcursor
libXrandr
libXext
]);
runScript = "bash";
# runScript = "${firefox}/bin/firefox";
};
apps.x86_64-linux.default = {
type = "app";
program = "${self.etxEnv}/bin/${etxEnv.name}";
};
};
}
Unfortunately this doesn’t work anymore after upgrading to nixos-22.11, neither with the original hash, nor after upgrading to the latest nixos-22.11. The launcher is started, but the desktop never appears and I see no error messages. ldd suggests that all libraries are bound by both the launcher and the etxc binary. I’ve tried to replace the etxc binary with a script wrapping it in strace but it detects that the binary is not the expected one.
I would be great for any suggestion on ways to further debug this.
