Could you please explain why your way is more beneficial? I'd like to understand your viewpoint.

I'm sorry - I missed this.

I am not so worried about application distribution as consumption and profiles with a declarative source and reusable dependencies seem preferable there. Distributors have different priorities (even leading some to recently only support shipping their applications as flatpaks!, but the idea that the consumer must accept what the distributor gives them is toxic and limiting. I'm happy to have alternatives and willing to learn from flatpaks - I just see their "realm" as slightly more limited than nix's (though nix's does have limitations and shortcomings as well)

@lxsameer:matrix.orglxsameerhey folks, is there any way to patch nixpkgs itself and then use it as an input in flakes?19:00:32
@samasaur:matrix.orgsamasaurYou can maintain a fork of nixpkgs and use that as a flake input19:05:22
@samasaur:matrix.orgsamasaurI’m not sure if there’s a way to say “take the latest nixpkgs on some channel, apply a patch, and use that as a flake input”19:05:55

I was hoping not to do that

@aidalgol:matrix.org@aidalgol:matrix.orgThe Nix developers are still trying to figure out how to support this cleanly. https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/392003:10:02
