Neovim: Install using Distrobox or PPA native?
Neovim: Install using Distrobox or PPA native?
Found out the version of neovim on PopOS was fairly outdated, and I would like to use more recent versions.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.
You're viewing a single thread.
I'be been having the same issue on mint, I did build it from source but it's not the most convenient. I did afterwards use a fedora atomic (immutable) and a distrobox with fedora classic on it. I think it is the most convenient if you are ready to use containers. You will have to export it to the host and it will use the configuration from your home folder
If I remember well, the PPA is outdated too !
