steam: add extraCompatPackages

Open Shawn8901 opened this issue 1 year ago • 0 comments

Description of changes

This PR adds an extra option for the steam module to define compat tools via declaration. One has to provide a valid proton derivation to let it appear in the steams proton list. What defines a valid proton derivation could be looked up here: https://gitlab.steamos.cloud/steamrt/steam-runtime-tools/-/blob/393bb134fc01f96d68925d6bfe300d58b97744ac/docs/steam-compat-tool-interface.md

This supersedes #189398. The option declaration is the same, but does not apply the environment variable globally but just on the steam wrapper.

For testing purposes one could either use the proton-ge that is have in my personal flake https://github.com/Shawn8901/nix-configuration/blob/main/packages/proton-ge-custom/default.nix or that one which is in the NUR https://github.com/nix-community/nur-combined/blob/master/repos/ataraxiasjel/pkgs/proton-ge/default.nix

sadly there is at the moment no custom proton runtime in nixpkgs at the moment (or at least i did not find any).
