I think that's also a bit of an unfair comparison given the number of AUR packages you usually use on Arch. With nixpkgs there isn't a distinction between official and community packages.

- iopq 3y agoSure there is, the NUR has a few thousand community packages that are not ready for release The nixpkgs are all official packages, it's just really easy to become a maintainer (you make a pull request adding the package you want to maintain)
- chpatrick 3y agoI'm just saying that X% of arch official packages being reproducible isn't a complete statistic when many day to day things are in AUR, most of which are in nixpkgs not NUR.
- Foxboron 3y agoAUR is unsupported, and the fact that nixpkgs decides to support everything is for them to decide. Reaching for reproducible builds support in Arch is a more attainable goal than for nixpkgs. Properly maintaing 80k packages without regressions is going to be a lot more work in the long term.
