libX11 not found.

Ah okay,

i'm getting this error with glutin :

[nix-shell:~/dev/rust/glutin]$ cargo run --example window
     Running `target/debug/examples/window`
thread '<main>' panicked at 'called `Result::unwrap()` on an `Err` value: NoBackendAvailable(LibraryOpenError(OpenError { kind: Library, detail: "\"libX11.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory\", \"libX11.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory\"" }))', src/libcore/result.rs:736
An unknown error occurred

To learn more, run the command again with --verbose.

this is my default.nix (NixOS) now:

   with import <nixpkgs> {};
   {
     glutinEnv = myEnvFun {
       name = "glutin";
       buildInputs = [ stdenv rustcMaster cargo cairo glib xwayland freetype weston wayland glfw SDL2 x11 libcaca xorg.libX11];

     };
   }

Cheers!

Maybe @eddyb has an idea?

@eddyb I read your IRC messages, a fellow nixer, would you mind if you copied your default.nix into this issue please. Thanks @tomaka.

The file in question (currently) lives at https://github.com/eddyb/r3/blob/master/default.nix, and it contains:

let
   pkgs = import <nixpkgs> {};
in pkgs.stdenv.mkDerivation rec {
  name = "r3-env";
  buildInputs = [ pkgs.freetype ];
  LD_LIBRARY_PATH = with pkgs.xlibs; "${pkgs.mesa}/lib:${libX11}/lib:${libXcursor}/lib:${libXxf86vm}/lib:${libXi}/lib";
}

Just to get glutin working, only this would be necessary:

let
   pkgs = import <nixpkgs> {};
in pkgs.stdenv.mkDerivation rec {
  name = "glutin-env";
  LD_LIBRARY_PATH = with pkgs.xlibs; "${pkgs.mesa}/lib:${libX11}/lib:${libXcursor}/lib:${libXxf86vm}/lib:${libXi}/lib";
}

Yes, worked like a charm, good man!
