  • repology-rules

    Package normalization ruleset for Repology

  • You can basically install nix packages on every Linux and even MacOS. They are imo better developed and less error prone. You are guaranteed to never have dependency issues. The hashing scheme and idea of representing and building packages from derivation logic is spectacular design. The design of Nix inherently supports atomic upgrades and the likes of an immutable system. Also, afaik, it has the largest package availability currently (at least as many pkgs as Arch's) https://repology.org/

    This tracks development for the things such as scripts and (defaults for) config files for Bedrock Linux

  • Bedrock, I'd guess.
