Yes, it's a known issue: #226339.

Unfortunately, the underlying bug is not related to pcloud itself, but to patchelf (an application used internally by Nix) whose maintainers don't have enough time to review my patches at the moment.

Fortunately, you can just apply the appropriate patch locally:

(https://gist.github.com/zarelit/c71518fe1272703788d3b5f570ef12e9)

Since the problem is already tracked in #226339, I'll close this issue.
