Is there something to handle that in packagekit? Or with distributions like Ubuntu that also use snap, it is is handled transparently somehow? Or do users have to choose which package manager to use? I wonder that because I'd be interested in somehow supporting the package manager of a foreign distribution (Parabola) to have an unified configuration that can work also when guix / guix home is used on top of another distribution[1]. [1] There are various advantages of using the distribution package manager instead of guix home in that case, like having the packages installed system wide for instance, or having the packages take less space.
