I don't know if I am going to use the right vocabulary, but as we get closer to the next release I thought I would bring up my need for supporting multiple channels at the nixos level.
For example, currently in unstable there is a package for mosquitto service, where as the current release only has the actual application. Another example would be I am developing a service that I want to test on my system. One way to fix both of these problems is to just point my system at the unstable channel, but given my system is used for more things that is not preferable, another option could be allowing containers to specify a channel and then I could run each of these projects in their own nixos container. Given that we are about to lock down for another 6 months I was hoping we could address this. If I am mistaken about this please correct me. thanks -- Matthew O'Gorman BM-NBUmia4p88Jny5bZbRGcMt64SWWp5WVv TorChat: 5w3dtk7nhkkijcpc Site: https://b.rldn.net Xim/Email: [email protected] mog@rldn:~$ fortune wisdom -s|cowsay -f /dev/null _________________________________________ / Life is the living you do, Death is the \ | living you don't do. | | | \ -- Joseph Pintauro / -----------------------------------------
