This would be really nice. I try to maintain packages for the software I write, and Nix completely defeated me. The learning curve for package building was steep, and for casual contribution (I don't use Nix myself), I had neither the bandwidth nor interest to climb it.

It looks like things have improved for my language of choice since I last looked at it - there appears to be a convenience builder now - so I may try again.

whats a transactional package manager and wjats the snow package manager (/ can i use jt on limux mint when it comes out)
