Yea... That's why I stopped using Arch Linux and moved to NixOS - for the sake of reproducibility and stability. Just today, in the attempt to clean up a little bit my system after some build experiments of neovim, I ran `apt autoremove` and had MPD failing to start with a message saying it can't find `libshout.so`. I fixed that easily but this is exactly what can't happen in NixOS - all system packages' are installed decoratively.
