Following approval of the /nix top-level directory with Fedora Linux, the Fedora Engineering and Steering Committee (FESCo) has additionally signed off on allowing the Nix package tool to appear in the Fedora 44 repository.

The change proposal to add the Nix functional package manager developer tool to Fedora has been cleared today by FESCo. With Fedora 44, developers wanting to package for Nix can now have an easier time doing so from Fedora.

That's awesome :) I hope they'll ship a more up-to-date nix than Ubuntu. The nix-bin deb package in the Ubuntu is so old it's better to install nix from the official installer or Determine Systems installer

One thing Fedora does well is ship newer stuff
