Repetier-Host-x86_64-2.3.2.AppImage crashes on NixOS

I'm trying to run repetier Host AppImage on NixOS but it does not work. The error message says libgdiplus is missing so I tried installing it but it's already present on my system. (Found 2 thread with the same issue but it it did not help : this and this

Here is the log error I get:

Repetier

Yes, it does not contain this library so when it is missing it will not start. Are you sure you have it and not a different version? It needs it with name libgdiplus.so.0 then it should show it as found.

I have libgdiplus-6.1 installed and it's linked as libgdiplus.so.0 inside the env used for the appimage:

henmir@nixos / [1]> ls /nix/store/20bkfqz6fqkk0517ma0klsf161znbx1v-Repetier-Host-2.3.2-extracted/usr/lib
libgdiplus.so.0  libgif.so.7  libjpeg.so.8  libmono-btls-shared.so  libmono-native.so  libMonoPosixHelper.so  libpng12.so.0  libtiff.so.5

If you can provide a list of required libraries and of which version I can do an extensive check to find what is missing
