Getting LoadError for vips.so.42 in Rails app using ActiveStorage connected to S3

I'm getting the following error I my research says it's because vips isn't installed. I know this means I would need to add it presumably by creating a nixpacks.toml file but I'm not immediately clear on what all would need to be added to do that looking at the documentation. if anyone has some guidance it would be appreciated

LoadError (Could not open library 'vips.so.42': vips.so.42: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory.
Could not open library 'libvips.so.42': libvips.so.42: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory):

That solved it Thanks Brody, I was initially worried I was going to have to rebuild the pack from scratch with the additional dependency added but it was way simplet than that
