emacsPackages.ghostel fails to fetch zig dependencies

smaximov · September 13, 2026, 10:35am

Not sure if it’s a Nix/nixpkgs issue (or a Zig/ghostty/ghostel issue) so I decided to create a forum topic first.

After updating nixpkgs from 241313f4 to eaad0894, rebuilding my system started failing while fetching Zig dependencies of emacsPackages.ghostel:

building the system configuration...
# It hangs here for a handful of minutes:

(you can try to replicate this failure in the repl: :b pkgs.emacsPackages.ghostel.zigDeps).

I’ve found a couple of somewhat relevant issues in different repos:

Build fail · Issue #3366 · ghostty-org/ghostty · GitHub — this blames Codeberg availability; I doubt it’s the case because fetching the files in the browser (and by using different CLI HTTP clients) downloads them just fine;
herdr: init at 0.7.0 by kevinpita · Pull Request #518310 · NixOS/nixpkgs · GitHub — the problem was with Zig version mismatch which is not the issue here.

There’s also #30853 - fetch of gitlab repo gives `TlsInitializationFailed` - ziglang/zig - Codeberg.org which alludes to some problems with extra TLS certificates in a chain, but it that doesn’t seems to be the issue since zig fetch successfully downloads the deps in question:

$ zig fetch --global-cache-dir /tmp/scratch/zig-cache https://deps.files.ghostty.org/translate_c-a916baf225a3cfc93a982225462db612604ae290.tar.gz
translate_c-0.0.0-Q_BUWj8_BwCr4na219OimiKKj4IVSq0aKtMXCQmIk4AB

Is it a sandboxing issue? I also noticed that while emacsPackages.ghostel uses the zig.fetchDeps fetcher (which in turn delegates to zig build --fetch under the hood), the ghostty package utilizes the built-in fetchers — I wonder if a similar approach could be taken here?

Could you try running

I think it’s been happening every time the packages are updated? It was working for me the other day, and then suddenly an flake update halted the rebuild.

smaximov · September 17, 2026, 8:26am

Unfortunately, I cannot speak about “every time” — I only started using the package somewhat recently (about a couple of weeks ago). The installation worked fine that time, and then I updated the inputs and it broke

Maybe when it worked the package got fetched from the binary cahce?

magicquark · September 18, 2026, 6:35pm

Note that cache.nixos.org does not build or cache emacsPackages.

github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs

pkgs/top-level/all-packages.nix

53ba7dd79


      
          # We want emacsPackages to be visible in search but not be build on hydra
          emacsPackages = recurseIntoAttrsWith {
            hydra = false;
            eval = false;
          } emacs.pkgs;

I have been using ghostel in Emacs for two months now and I have not seen this issue (yet).

withakay · September 18, 2026, 8:09pm

seems like some sort of rate limiting at first glance maybe? But if you can download them then you should be able to add them to the store with something like nix-store --add-fixed

smaximov · September 26, 2026, 2:42pm

After disabling the ghostel emacs package, I re-enabled it today and now it fetches deps and builds successfully again, so I guess it was a transient issue. I’m marking the topic as solved but I still have no idea what was the root cause - whether it was a sandboxing, rate-limiting, or networking issue, or an issue with the host (deps.files.ghostty.org).
