I'm not sure whether the docs are objective at this very moment.


If you compare 0inst with AUR it is clear to see why AUR is more
popular: it works better and is less trouble!

It does not keep an app programmer to use the same advanced ways in use
with 0inst, just, it does not enforce it. Which is why you find some
absolute paths in AUR apps.

But overall, AUR is simpler and less trouble and adds less complexities.

Its quite impressive how the guix makers proved their point by actually
packaging a whole distro with it, i.e. GuixSD.


Is is poss to repackage GuixSD using 0install ? That would be cool...
it might actually be poss. ...
