I unfortunately no longer have hardware that works with iio-sensor-proxy, so I have no way of testing out a new version.

I got iio-sensor-proxy working on the latest version. I'm still somewhat new to Nix, but here is what changed from 3.0 to 3.4.

• The build system changed from autotools to meson. (remove automake and add meson/ninja)
• A new dependency on polkit was introduced.
• The polkit_policy_directory in the meson.build needs to be patched.

Here's my overlay which I used to make it work:

final: prev: {
  iio-sensor-proxy = prev.iio-sensor-proxy.overrideAttrs (finalAttrs: prevAttrs: rec {
    version = "3.4";
    src = final.fetchFromGitLab {
      domain = "gitlab.freedesktop.org";
      owner = "hadess";
      repo = "iio-sensor-proxy";
      rev = version;
      sha256 = "sha256-O1rob/LVjNNY4F0d/Z9h8ZO7gVHZR8fvRhPpZ6GcyX0=";
    };
    patchPhase = ''
      sed -i "s|^polkit_policy_directory = .*\$|polkit_policy_directory = '$out/share/polkit-1/actions'|" meson.build
    '';
    configurePhase = null;
    mesonFlags = [
      "-Dudevrulesdir=${placeholder "out"}/lib/udev"
      "-Dsystemdsystemunitdir=${placeholder "out"}/lib/systemd/system"
    ];
    nativeBuildInputs = with final; [
      pkg-config
      meson
      ninja
    ];
    buildInputs = with final; [
      glib
      libgudev
      polkit
      systemd
    ];
  });
}
