Also if you want another dead package: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/master/pkgs/development/libraries/nvidia-video-sdk/default.nix

This is not marked as broken, is it?

Oh yeah it's not.

It's unfree and the source hasn't been publicly available for multiple years though

No worries if you dont add it, it's just another dead package which I've been meaning to PR a removal

As suggested by @Gerg-L, this removes the nvidia-video-sdk, which has
unavailable source for multiple years by now (as mentioned in
NixOS#249582 (comment))
