Overlay for ulauncher fails

Help
1

I’m trying to install the package ulauncher, which is currently broken on nixpkgs. There is a PR to fix it, but until its merged, I tried to make an overlay:

self: super:
{
  ulauncher = super.ulauncher.overrideAttrs (old: rec {

    nativeBuildInputs = with super; [
      python3Packages.distutils_extra
      intltool
      wrapGAppsHook
      gdk-pixbuf
      gobject-introspection
    ];
  
    buildInputs = with super; [
      gdk-pixbuf
      glib
      gnome.adwaita-icon-theme
      gtk3
      keybinder3
      libappindicator
      libnotify
      librsvg
      webkitgtk
      wmctrl
    ];
  });
}

When I try to install it with this overlay, I get the following error:

error: builder for '/nix/store/3xj8s3jk4xixlh2vswahn4azvwdcjxwm-ulauncher-5.12.1.drv' failed with exit code 2;

What’s causing this issue?

You’re probably need to add old.nativeBuildInputs and old.buildInputs to the lists or the overrideAttrs is undoing some things from buildPythonApplication.
