Ah neat! Note that the folder structure should be treated as internal to Nixpkgs, there is no API guarantee that it will not change over time. Considering that, it would be great if we could figure out a proper API that Nixpkgs could expose for this. Maybe it should be as simple as pkgs.preferredDirectoryForPackage "foo" = ./pkgs/by-name/fo/foo just implemented the feature in nix-init, I think one thing that would help is if some constants and shard_for_package are exposed in a crate | 18:34:46 |

| figsoda | not much more information aside from what was already said, but this would be a good place to aggregate the discussion | 23:07:27 |
| infinisil | figsoda: Can you ping @nixpkgs-architecture/team in the issue so it's going to the teams notifications? That would be great :) | 23:12:53 |
| infinisil | Updating it should work | 23:12:58 |
