I'm curious how things like Nix will help with this in the future, especially as the platform matures.
I took a bit of time a little while back to convert a wee app of mine to using Nix flakes to build, specifically because I was getting bitten by API changes in a key dependency. Once I nailed down the configuration to include the version(s) that worked with my original code... it worked. Took a while that first time, but got it done, and now it should be defined in a way that stays robust.
