The tarball archive needs to be downloaded manually as the license agreements of the vendor for <link xlink:href="https://www.citrix.com/downloads/citrix-receiver/">Citrix Receiver</link> or <link xlink:href="https://www.citrix.de/downloads/workspace-app/linux/workspace-app-for-linux-latest.html">Citrix Workspace</link> need to be accepted first. Then run <command>nix-prefetch-url file://$PWD/linuxx64-$version.tar.gz</command>. With the archive available in the store the package can be built and installed with Nix.

It's recommended to install <literal>Citrix Receiver</literal> and/or <literal>Citrix Workspace</literal> using <literal>nix-env -i</literal> or globally to ensure that the <literal>.desktop</literal> files are installed properly into <literal>$XDG_CONFIG_DIRS</literal>. Otherwise it won't be possible to open <literal>.ica</literal> files automatically from the browser to start a Citrix connection.

The <literal>Citrix Workspace App</literal> in <literal>nixpkgs</literal> trust several certificates <link xlink:href="https://curl.haxx.se/docs/caextract.html">from the Mozilla database</link> by default. However several companies using Citrix might require their own corporate certificate. On distros with imperative packaging these certs can be stored easily in <link xlink:href="https://developer-docs.citrix.com/projects/receiver-for-linux-command-reference/en/13.7/"><literal>$ICAROOT</literal></link>, however this directory is a store path in <literal>nixpkgs</literal>. In order to work around this issue the package provides a simple mechanism to add custom certificates without rebuilding the entire package using <literal>symlinkJoin</literal>:
