GNU Guix () is a cross-platform package manager and a tool to instantiate and manage Unix-like operating systems, based on the Nix package manager with Guile Scheme APIs and specializes in providing exclusively free software.

Dependencies from each software are included within each hash, solving the problem of dependency hell. Read more on Wikipedia...
