Found out the version of neovim on PopOS was fairly outdated, and I would like to use more recent versions. So I am confronted with these choices : Do I go for PPAs, or is distrobox fine for this purpose? While distrobox works well, I am worried that mismatches in packages could cause issues.

About flatpak: it is a no-go for me in this usecase, since it takes quite a bit of configuration to “escape” the sandbox.
