That is a complicated way to achieve the same thing Darch does. I'd prefer to not learn a new DSL. Packages and products are more widely supported on Ubuntu/Debian. In the end, I just want to work and play, not learn a new DSL, while having everything in the article you shared.
- takeda 6y agoThis is not the same thing darch does, what darch does can be done by chroot, namespaces etc and is not that complicated.
- pknopf 6y agoOf course, the tech is different. I meant the end-goal being achieved is the same. > what darch does can be done by chroot, namespaces etc and is not that complicated. Exactly my point.
- RaitoBezarius 6y agoNo, it's really not the same thing. You have a very weak reproducibility which relies on Docker's implementation details and a lot of impurities. In contrary, NixOS has very fine-grained reproducibility (and is not perfect of course) but get us very far [1] [1]: https://r13y.com/ https://r13y.com/
- pknopf 6y agoIt's close enough for desktop purposes, especially for people not willing to make the plunge into a new world with its own DSL. You don't really hear people complain about the reproducibility of "docker pull ubuntu:bionic".
