I know that a lot of what Nix does is working around its break from FHS, but I can imagine there are still things that seep through. Are there any unsolvable problems due to this?
I saw on this post that it is possible to use FHS on Nix. Does this solve all potential issues then?
Gobolinux enters the room.
Gobo’s been around and doing its alternative thing, successfully, for 20 years, so no. It’s not a problem.
Oh I remember trying this, I should give it another go!
Eh. I didn’t personally find that the upheaval added much, and it interfered with my muscle memory working with FHS systems… which are everything else. It didn’t add, like, BeOS-levels of drastic benefit in exchange for being so divergent. And it obviously never caught on anywhere else.
Just my experience.
