Additional context
Did you find a solution for this? I've been having the same error (also on nixpkgs unstable)
I actually did. I found that nixos 23.05 doesn't have this issue. IDK if it matters, if the flake matches the system version for this.
I do also have some unstable bits in my system config, via a system flake, but the overall systemState is 23.05
Pretty sure I've managed to track it down to this commit from this PR. However I don't have the time to sit through hours worth of cache-miss build times ATM to identify exactly where it went wrong.
Edit: Ok so this might be weirder than I first thought, when updating my system at different commits:
1cf369a0dd162e2da454edd7880eb87bd4543eef(00:02 AM) does not workc7e70840c0ea981bc97a265b2294246dcc33775d(00:56 AM) does worka9e00367e77d2c0b9b6f7daf9abd0fe136f3cc57(1:34 AM) does not work
I'm pretty clueless as to what is happening here
@C0D3-M4513R @alexarice I know this sounds dumb but can you try simply running nix flake update for your project flake?
Seems like in the end the issue was a mismatch between the dependencies uses for building via the flake and the ones the system had.
I just created a new project, and updated my flake and system to 23.11 and ran nix flake update.
Otherwise I basically inherited the packaging as described above. I still get this error when launching from my ide:

Error: Error { raw_code: None, raw_os_message: None, kind: BadConfig }
and this one, when using a nix develop shell and running the resulting binary inside the dev-shell:

however nix build does work correctly. So at least I can run it somehow. It is very inconvenient for developing the app though.
Seems like in the end the issue was a mismatch between the dependencies uses for building via the flake and the ones the system had.
Also isn't the entire purpose of the nix-store to ensure that this doesn't happen? Afaik the flake will pull it's dependencies into the nix store (if not already present) and create a link to that project somehow.

Yes-ish. However I believe that there still needs to be some coherence for stuff like drivers as edge cases, it's not a truly fully self-contained system afaik.
Your app for example runs on my machine after switching the nixpkgs branch to match nixos-unstable (and a flake update) which is what I track on my system:
There's always the possibility I have something enabled that does magically fix this along with the previously mentioned flake update, but I'd wager that's unlikely. In any case you can peek at my nixos config and see if that's the case.
I feel like with the liked things in this issue there should be enough information for people to figure out, how to get egui to work on nixos.
