   @ekaitz_zarraga yep agree, thats why I had to switch distros. If I didn't have a family and full time job I would of stayed with it. Just trying to get nim-lang or rust-nightly was a huge pain.

     @ekaitz_zarraga I guess I must not be using “normal software” then. :-)

     You mean things like running pre-built binaries that target an FHS distro? That can indeed be as cumbersome as risky, though ‘guix environment --container’ can help.

     @ekaitz_zarraga A solution that’s been proposed before is a ‘--fhs’ flag to ‘guix environment --container’ that would set up /lib, /bin, and so on.
