 Marie | https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/490149/ | 16:41:23 |
| Marie | https://invent.kde.org/kde-linux/kapsule, KDE's better version of distrobox | 16:41:57 |
| Hadi Chokr | Oh no Lasaths work got detected. | 16:42:38 |
| Hadi Chokr | In case you are wondering, I am one of the Core Maintainers of KDE Linux aka Council of Elders under which kapsule lives. | 16:45:01 |
| Hadi Chokr | Amd Lasath wanted it to stay KDE Linux centric at first but he probably wouldnt mind getting a nixpkg so early. | 16:45:41 |

| Marie | oh, cool! I tried KDE Linux today and discovered Kapsule and wanted to have it on NixOS too. | 16:50:33 |
| Marie | I opened a MR for the small patch required to get it to work on NixOS | 16:51:03 |
| Hadi Chokr | I am constantly shilling nix to the Rest of the Elders lmao. | 16:52:00 |
| Hadi Chokr | "well this way you can run Kapsule in Nix, and then put Nix in that Kapsule, and in that Kapsule, put another Nix, and in that Nix put another Kapsule…" | 16:52:21 |
| Marie | NixOS inside Kapsule sadly doesn't work yet :( | 16:52:40 |
| Hadi Chokr | "I meant put nix in kapsule not kapsule in nix 😅" | 16:52:48 |
| Hadi Chokr | These are some comments other KDE Linux Devs made about this. | 16:53:02 |
| Marie | lol | 16:53:18 |
 K900 | FWIW my take on this is that we should probably let it mature a bit more before accepting it in nixpkgs | 16:53:23 |
| Marie | might be a good idea yes | 16:54:31 |
| Hadi Chokr | Keep it as a Draft for maybe 2 months. Till then KDE Linux will have made more progress including kapsule. | 16:55:26 |
| Hadi Chokr | Lasath said:"for real though, let me know what roadblocks you find - I suspect I've taken a lot of implict dependencies on things that are already available in KDE Linux" | 17:02:30 |
| Hadi Chokr | Actually why am I narrating? Just join the room lmao.
