Source-reported description

The fullest retained description is shown with its source. Distribution packaging descriptions may include downstream details.

Nix is a purely functional package manager. It allows multiple versions of a package to be installed side-by-side, ensures that dependency specifications are complete, supports atomic upgrades and rollbacks, allows non-root users to install software, and has many other features. It is the basis of the NixOS Linux distribution, but it can be used equally well under other Unix systems. See the README.fedora.md file for setup instructions.

Packages by operating system

Compare recorded versions, then open a package for dependency, file, checksum, and repository evidence. Version strings are distribution-specific, not a ranking of newer software.

Mapping provenance

Only source-backed identity signals create public cross-OS links. A reviewer can later approve or dispute an inferred relationship without rewriting native package history.
