Try installing it with nix
how
My man, I just installed Mint and nvchad was on my list.
what list
of what to install after distro hoping
i’ve installed neovim with nix package manager on mint.
Available as flatpak https://flathub.org/apps/io.neovim.nvim
flathub is old, also nvchad wont work with it (or at least idk how. same with doom emacs for emacs)
Last release wad 25 days ago
No, flathub has the latest version (0.95), as you can see on the project’s Github page (0.95): https://github.com/neovim/neovim/releases
oh strange sorry, onky the system package is outdated
I use bob. It’s a version manager for Neovim.
Hi Bob.
Sorry I had to do this reference from “For All Mankind”
There’s a PPA for neovim, currently at 0.7.x : https://launchpad.net/~neovim-ppa/+archive/ubuntu/stable Oh, sorry, I see NvChad wants 0.9.4 and Nerdfonts (Though not a hard requirement : https://docs.rockylinux.org/books/nvchad/nerd_fonts/).
https://launchpad.net/~neovim-ppa/+archive/ubuntu/unstable -> 0.10.x
whats a ppa and why does it take so long for apt to update its stuff
Ubuntu uses LTS with five year support, which is why they like to keep a lot of software versions back. Linux Mint is based on Ubuntu I think. PPA is something you can add to Ubuntu or Ubuntu based Linux distributions to have newer or specific software repositories as extra on your system. Here’s a guide on PPA : https://itsfoss.com/ppa-guide/
what is nerdfonts and dies linux mimt have it
According to that article mentioned in my earlier comment you won’t need the nerdfonts.
Options:
- Use bob version manager
- Add the ppa
- Use Nix Package Manager (Don’t go down the Nix rabbit hole unless you really want to)
are ppas permanent? does my system scan for those addresses every update?
AFAIK, if you install via the ppa, then it will update
neovimwhen youapt update
