What solutions out there can package software in the native package format? I only found fpm (effing package management) and OBS (Open Build Service) so far.

  • 2023-11-02: Highlight the word native.

    Nix allows you to download a binary of a proprietary package because every input is hashed. You may need to patch it to work with the correct paths, but these tools already exist.
