Electron expression hasn't changed since last time it worked.
Maybe its related to gtk changes? @jtojnar

Not aware of any changes in GTK2. Well, I played with GConf but that did not hit unstable yet..

Looking at the expression, electron gets its rpath from atomEnv

nixpkgs/pkgs/development/tools/electron/default.nix

Line 50 in 629c901

--set-rpath "${atomEnv.libPath}:$out/lib/electron" \

Which was updated to gtk3 in b95b410. I guess that is the culprit.

Can this be fixed by just adding both gtk2 and gtk3 to atomEnv?

It would make it work but updating/fixing electron to work with GTK3 is what we should do instead.
