The rules_proto repository uses pre-build binaries for all platforms which fails on NixOS because the location of the dynamic linker is non-standard.
Currently, on NixOS the WORKSPACE file has to be edited to apply a patch to rules_proto. Which is a bit cumbersome.
I think we should solve that more generally with a platform flag or something. This is probably not the last issue to encounter with NixOS. So yes, preferrably let us deal with it in a different context.
