Using NetBSD’s pkgsrc everywhere I can
I&#x27;d been wondering how good pgksrc is on macOS for a little while, previously having used Homebrew wherever Nixpkgs was inconvenient or incomplete. Could pkgsrc could be a better choice?<p>pkgsrc is relatively nice for a cross-platform, source-based package manager in the old style, in that it provides convenient binary caches for most use cases.<p>I wonder: Has the writer of the post in the OP tried any next-gen source-based package managers, where the kind of isolation he describes as desirable between system and user packages is guaranteed between all packages altogether?
