Remarks

I am new to nix and obelisk.

  • How can I debug this issue?
  • Is this error caused by nix or by the haskell build stack (ghc for instance)?

Huh, that's likely a problem with your nix installation.
Maybe try this workaround for a suspiciously similar issue:
https://discourse.nixos.org/t/segmentation-fault-when-running-any-nix-program-sigsegv-exit-code-139/36659/9

nix-env -f https://github.com/obsidiansystems/obelisk/archive/master.tar.gz -iA command -v --option print-missing false

If that fails, then update your channel in case it's a bug that's been fixed upstream.
Failing that, I guess re-install nix

Thanks for the advice. I tried updating the channel, wiping and re-installing nix. Problem persists.

Btw, building other applications works:

Another thing I tried: cding into the nix dir that contains the obelisk source and running nix-build. Same issue:

How can I find out, what actually causes the error? Can I somehow get more output?

Btw, building other applications works:

Well, that didn't build the package as it was fetched from cache.nixos.org .
nix-build -A nixpkgs.hello --check
will force re-build the root derivation.

You can also try building a trivial haskell program
nix-build -A nixpkgs.haskellPackages.hello
or a big one
nix-build -A nixpkgs.haskellPackages.pandoc

How can I find out, what actually causes the error? Can I somehow get more output?

Maybe nix-build --show-trace.
You can also try adding more v for more verbosity levels, e.g. -vvv.

I had exactly the same issue as @EsGeh. I installed nix via pacman on arch linux today and when trying to install obelisk I got exactly the same error.
I then uninstalled nix as described in the nix manual and reinstalled it with bash <(curl -L https://nixos.org/nix/install) --daemon and now the obelisk installation works.

Since I installed nix on another arch linux computer via pacman some time ago and had no problems with it (although I did not install obelisk then) and since this issue popped up just a few days ago there might just be something wrong with the most recent change in the nix package for arch linux which is from May 11th.

As nix newbie, I've been struggling with your explanation on how to build nix-build -A nixpkgs.haskellPackages.hello, as naively typing it on the cmd line from any directory doesn't work. This is the way I managed to do it:

$ nix-shell -p haskellPackages.hello -v --check
[...] # lots of output
nix-shell $ hello
Hello, World!

This succeeds.

On the original Problem, adding --show-trace or -vvv doesn't give any helpful information to isolate the problem. Last output before the segfault ist still

evaluating file '/nix/store/b5w4rjxslafcb5clk0vbvmkyd1ra9w67-source/parse-git-config.nix'

Since building other packages work, it seems the problem comes from the obelisk nix expression or maybe a bug in nix that the obelisk package reveals.
Correct?

Next thing one could try isolating the problem by selectively uncommenting parts in the .nix file.
Not sure, if that will be successful, taking into consideration that the problem might be actually be rooted in Nixes C++ code.

Really frustrating. A segfault? seriously?
I was excited about nix, but I hope that this is an exception and that in general it isn't a completely buggy piece of software.

I don’t think this is any consolidation or help right now, but I now a lot of Nix power users and while they complain a lot about Nix, recurring segfaults is not a problem I hear about. So hopefully this is the exception and not the rule.

While I have no real clue about the problem at hand, the recommendation to bypass pacman and installing nix manually sounds kinda reasonable. At least it helps for other Haskell+Arch related problems.^^

naively typing it on the cmd line from any directory doesn't work

Oh my bad, that was meant to be run from the root of this repo, since default.nix exposes a specific nixpkgs pin/overrides attribute.

Don't think I've hit one of these myself in years of using nix. In fact, the greatest recurring problem of "X isn't working for me" I've seen around this ecosystem tends to derive from installing nix itself, since you can't use nix for that.
