    I'm wanting some kind of immutable-ish arch, with all user packages managed by something else like one of these. Also been checking this out https://github.com/jdholtz/pacman-venv which is surprising that it works with just some basic environment variables changing the pacman root and stuff.

    Hi everyone. I just released a new project called pacman-venv. This is a tool that allows you to create virtual environments for Pacman. It works similarly to Python's virtualenv. You can find the project's AUR page here and the source code here.
