<title>Package Management</title>
|
||
<para>
|
||
This section describes how to add additional packages to your system. NixOS
|
||
has two distinct styles of package management:
|
||
<itemizedlist>
|
||
<listitem>
|
||
<para>
|
||
<emphasis>Declarative</emphasis>, where you declare what packages you want
|
||
in your <filename>configuration.nix</filename>. Every time you run
|
||
<command>nixos-rebuild</command>, NixOS will ensure that you get a
|
||
consistent set of binaries corresponding to your specification.
|
||
</para>
|
||
</listitem>
|
||
<listitem>
|
||
<para>
|
||
<emphasis>Ad hoc</emphasis>, where you install, upgrade and uninstall
|
||
packages via the <command>nix-env</command> command. This style allows
|
||
mixing packages from different Nixpkgs versions. It’s the only choice
|
||
for non-root users.
