There's also the GuixSD: http://www.gnu.org/software/guix/ http://www.gnu.org/software/guix/. Same thing with a touch of Lisp.

- zzzcpan 10y agoIs guix as rough on the edges as nix? I have nixos installed in qemu, but so far don't find the experience to be pleasant. The ideas are great though, definitely the direction to move for all package managers.
- gkya 10y agoI've no experience with Nix, but I tried guix package manager and it was fine. I didn't hit any edge cases, but I didn't dive deep. I tried installing GuixSD (the OS) too, but failed, and because I was in a hurry, couldn't investigate much. But I did hit a critical issue: scarse docs. It's nowhere near FreeBSD where docs indeed help you out without a google search.
- aidenn0 10y agoNixOS has gotten signigicantly less rough, though the documentation is still spotty. That being said, Nix as a userspace package manager is great, and I use it everywhere.
