How do I run a executable built with nix-build on NixOS without installing it?
haskell,package-managers,nixos
The correct solution here is not to fix the nix expression. Instead, you should extend your application such that it uses getDataFileName which is provided by the cabal-generated Paths module to find it's files (you could use it as a fallback). For more information about this see: http://neilmitchell.blogspot.de/2008/02/adding-data-files-using-cabal.html...

Is there any package management system for MinGW+MSYS?
gcc,mingw,apt-get,package-managers,msys

However, it can only manage packages which are actually available for MinGW and/or MSYS, (either because a MinGW developer has built and packaged them, or a member of the MinGW user community has contributed them). Arbitrarily guessing...

Content-files with NuGet are very very slow
c#,asp.net,visual-studio,nuget,package-managers

Then use something like EmbeddedResourceVirtualPathProvider https://github.com/mcintyre321/EmbeddedResourceVirtualPathProvider to serve them up. That way NuGet is simply replacing the .dll instead of 800 individual files. There are plenty of articles online about...

how to require a specific file using duojs
frontend,package-managers,duo.js
You can specify the path to an entry file for your lib. It won't be as clean as just specifying user/repo, but it'll get the job done.
