What would it take to package proton-tkg?

I would love to have proton-tkg on NixOS. I tried to build it naively, by running their builder script in a regular bash shell, but despite patching shebangs and installing dependencies I get stuck because it can’t find the 64-bit X development libraries.

Obviously that has been solved in our wine packages, but seeing as proton-tkg is a sort of build wrapper around wine with its own patches, I have no idea how to achieve this on NixOS. Is this problem even tractable?

steam-run would probably go most of the distance. based on the PKGBUILD that’s included.

Did anyone figure it out?

Until Proton-TKG is packaged properly, here’s some alternatives:
