[Nix-dev] Compiling Thunar from git

Hi!

Maybe, here is what is going on: Existing thunar expression builds
Thunar from a tarball which already has ./configure script. In
contrast, you don't have it in your git-tree so you need more
dependencies to let ./autogen.sh to build it. Try adding
[pkgs.autoconf pkgs.automake pkgs.m4] to the buildInputs.

Regards,
Sergey
