Request for libfprint port for 2808:a658

Development
7

Even if I do “nothing” in the build script, I end up with either python3 error (shown above) AND/OR libfprint-2 missing error.
Similar issues were noticed in yet another libfprint patch: https://discourse.nixos.org/t/i-am-trying-to-create-a-custom-package-containing-libfprint-drivers-firmware/

With the most minimal config, I get the following errors (missing libraries)

{ stdenv
, lib
, fetchurl
, dpkg
, autoPatchelfHook
}:

stdenv.mkDerivation rec {
  pname = "libfprint-ft9366";
  version = "1.94.4";

  src = fetchurl {
    url = "https://github.com/ftfpteams/RTS5811-FT9366-fingerprint-linux-driver-with-VID-2808-and-PID-a658/raw/b040ccd953c27e26c1285c456b4264e70b36bc3f/libfprint-2-2_1.94.4+tod1-0ubuntu1~22.04.2_amd64_rts5811.deb";
    hash = "sha256-vH1SbJ+/Uro7IQKM/SNUo44ySZqMwj+SgmmzOmwAgpw=";
  };

  nativeBuildInputs = [
    autoPatchelfHook
    dpkg
  ];

  unpackPhase = ''
    dpkg-deb -x $src .
  '';

  installPhase = ''
    cp -r . $out/
  '';
}

Now trying to patch each library arrives me to:

    libgio-2.0.so.0 -> not found!       => glib
    libgobject-2.0.so.0 -> not found!   => glib
    libglib-2.0.so.0 -> not found!      => glib
    libgusb.so.2 -> not found!          => glib
    libpixman-1.so.0 -> not found!      => pixman
    libnss3.so -> not found!            => nss
    libgudev-1.0.so.0 -> not found!     => libgudev
    libstdc++.so.6 -> not found!        => stdenv.cc.cc
    libgcc_s.so.1 -> not found!         => stdenv.cc.cc
auto-patchelf: 9 dependencies could not be satisfied

{ stdenv, lib, fetchurl, dpkg, autoPatchelfHook, glib, gusb, pixman, libgudev, nss}:

stdenv.mkDerivation rec {
  pname = "libfprint-ft9366";
  version = "1.94.4";

  src = fetchurl {

  };

  nativeBuildInputs = [
    autoPatchelfHook
    dpkg
  ];

  buildInputs = [
    stdenv.cc.cc
    glib
    gusb
    pixman
    nss
    libgudev
  ];

  unpackPhase = ''
    dpkg-deb -x $src .
  '';

  installPhase = ''
    cp -r . $out/
  '';
}

All required libraries were supplied, but this time Meson build fails.

Even adding libfprint doesn’t help (nix-locate libfprint-2)

Sorry for the trouble! I’m new to nix, and this is sort of overwhelming for me.
