Describe the bug

I get the problem:
building nongnu-9ee5a76: error: Server does not allow request for unadvertised object 9ee5a7657a22e836618813c2e2b64a548d27d2ff
while trying to update my nixos install. Indeed I did nix show derivation show /nix/store/nl2amxp9wsdz8cy7z016hpbyql8qm274-nongnu-9ee5a76.drv and https://git.savannah.gnu.org/git/emacs/nongnu.git does really not list an object with that revision.

I localized the issue to the file pkgs/applications/editors/emacs/elisp-packages/recipes-archive-melpa.json by rgrepping in my local checkout of nixkpgs at the commit pinned in flake.lock.

I've localized the no-longer available revision to commit 368c073

Steps to reproduce

try to build any emacs packages
