-This site very obviously uses [ikiwiki](https://ikiwiki.info) both as a static wiki compiler but also for the few dynamic elements present. It's written in perl, and has a large number of Perl module dependencies. Nearly all of these do not care about the versions of much else, so they'll just work after you install them. Unfortunately, I discovered the Ikiwiki's image functionality uses the PerlMagick module, which does indeed depend on ImageMagick - in fact, it depended on ImageMagick 6.x. It wasn't in Alpine's package repositories for my version (they only )and installing it by hand did not work, failing with an error. I even tried replacing the distro's ImageMagick with my own that included perl support, but to no avail.

 # Enter Nix (and Guix)
 At this time I had previously encountered Nix and Guix, both of which offer a substantially different approach to package management compared with conventional systems (such as regular distro package managers but others as well). One of their offered features is isolation: You can use a package (or a version of a package) without that extending to other packages or the system as a whole. There's other useful features that drop out of their model but this is the key one in this context.
