In the scenario you are unable to run the resulting binary: this is arguably the most complicated as it could be any combination of the previous reasons. This type of failure typically occurs when a library attempts to load or open a library it depends on that it does not declare in its `DT_NEEDED` section. As a first step, ensure that dependencies are patched with [`cudaPackages.autoAddDriverRunpath`](https://search.nixos.org/packages?channel=unstable&type=packages&query=cudaPackages.autoAddDriverRunpath). Failing that, try running the application with [`nixGL`](https://github.com/guibou/nixGL) or a similar wrapper tool. If that works, it likely means that the application is attempting to load a library that is not in the `RPATH` or `RUNPATH` of the binary.
