For boost Linux adoption, allow to simply develop packages for each distribution. Zypper should accept --devel-each switch or handle virtual --devel-each packages and redirect those requests to gnu-guix. OpenSUSE should been integrated with gnu-guix by default and allow to start developing packages for most distribution. But, GUIX package manager should been adopted by more distribution firstly. GNU-GUIX is nix-based package manager for GUIX and other distributions. OpenSUSE allows to install this package manager from default distribution. OpenSUSE could gather more developers by allowing to create croos-distro packages using GNU-GUIX. When user download source package, it will install dependencies for OpenSUSE> By installing all needed packages by GUIX, user will be pretty sure, program will behaves similar on other distribution, if user install it by GUIX. It is similar than flatpak approach, but it has some advantage, like reduces space usage.
