minus-squareCommunist@lemmy.frozeninferno.xyzlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·edit-21 month agoI don’t know much about gentoo, but use flags sound a lot like overlays to me, but like I said, i’m not familiar with gentoo. nixos allows the install of various versions of software by default so slots are definitely a thing. It’s one of the main things nix wanted to fix.
