nimforum mirror - Error building a snap for a nim project on snapcraft.io

lapisdecor (orginal) [2026-04-17T12:14:45+02:00] view original

I don't know if this is a Nim problem but when trying to build a snap using snapcraft.io connection to github I get this log error TL;DR: nimble can't access the package list.

Can you help me fix this?
