Found out the version of neovim on PopOS was fairly outdated, and I would like to use more recent versions. So I am confronted with these choices : Do I go for PPAs, or is distrobox fine for this purpose? While distrobox works well, I am worried that mismatches in packages could cause issues.
About flatpak: it is a no-go for me in this usecase, since it takes quite a bit of configuration to “escape” the sandbox.
Distrobox FTW!
That should not be a thing in the first place. Though, if you prefer to designate a different home folder for the distrobox container, then it’s worth noting that Distrobox does offer support for that.
