You’ve hit Build failure: emulationstation-de · Issue #418681 · NixOS/nixpkgs · GitHub. Fix it by not using freeimage, or by importing it from an older Nixpkgs back when it was less rotten.

How in the world did you know it was emulationstation? How would I know!?

I went to the Nixpkgs issues list and searched for your error message.

Hi! I opened that issue.

The trick is to use add --show-trace to your command and scroll up until you find a package you recognize.
