Playwright fails with 'libglib-2.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file' on a Nixpacks build
libglib-2.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file
This trap has not been confirmed recently and may be out of date.
Verified 2026-06-22 · Confirmed by 0 builders · Trust 50/100
Cause
playwright install --with-deps needs apt-get, which the Nixpacks build sandbox does not offer, so the fallback installed the browser without its system libraries.
Fix
Build from the official Playwright Docker image, keeping its tag in step with the playwright package version.
Apply
FROM mcr.microsoft.com/playwright:v1.60.0-jammy
Affects: Playwright 1.60.0 on Railway Nixpacks, June 2026
