OpenGL fails inside steam-run?

Help
1

I was able to use the Natron software in NixOs 20.03 by running the program inside a steam-run shell. Unfortunately, it does not work anymore in unstable, I get complains about opengl:

$ LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose QT_X11_NO_MITSHM=1 steam-run ./Natron

At the beginning, I also couldn’t make glxinfo work, but I found a solution for glxinfo here, it was an issue with versions. But now this works:

nix run -f channel:nixos-unstable glxinfo -c glxgears

But steam-run is installed systemwide, (not sure if it matters, but I setup it using sudo nixos-rebuild -I nixos-config=configuration.nix -I "nixpkgs=${nixos_unstable}"). Any idea what’s wrong?

Ok, so it seams that steam-run is using a different ldd version:

And I checked… and indeed, I pinned steam-run from 20.03, I guess because I got some strange errors before… Nevermind, I removed the pin, and now it works. Stupid me, sorry for the noise.
