failure to build `gd` Hackage library in `nix develop` shell

[peterbecich]

Describe the bug

This haskell.nix project https://github.com/peterbecich/haskell-nix-gd-issue depends on an old library gd: https://hackage.haskell.org/package/gd-3000.7.3

nix build succeeds.

In the nix develop shell, cabal build fails.

The important errors appear to be:

error: /nix/store/...-binutils-2.39/bin/ld: warning: libXpm.so.4, needed by /nix/store/....-gd-2.3.3/lib/libgd.so, not found (try using -rpath or -rpath-link)

gd-3000.7.3.log

I have provided many/all of the dependencies of gd:
https://github.com/peterbecich/haskell-nix-gd-issue/blob/2fa3144a80fd445efef64f798f9bf92334994070/flake.nix#L33-L36

Not included in the commit, I have set LD_LIBRARY_PATH in the dev shell, which produces a different error:

LD_LIBRARY_PATH = pkgs.lib.makeLibraryPath buildInputs;

Can someone point me in the right direction?

• Build system: x86_64-linux
• GHC version: 9.2.5
• Haskell.nix version (or commit) used: today's version

Steps To Reproduce

• clone https://github.com/peterbecich/haskell-nix-gd-issue

• nix develop

• cabal build

Expected behavior

cabal build succeeds

Additional context

I am attempting to use haskell.nix to provide a Flake for hackage-server, which depends on gd: haskell/hackage-server#1154
