Nim 0.11.2 is in Debian Unstable - https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/nim - :)

apt-get install nim

There's also a documentation package nim-doc that you can install and browse at file:///usr/share/doc/nim-doc/html/overview.html

If there is any Nim library or application that you think is popular and stable enough to be accepted in Debian please reply to this thread or open an RFP.

How about a Nimble Debian package?

If Nimble was also available on Debian, then nimble can retrieve anything Nim requires.

Or maybe it should be part of the one Nim Debian package (an all-things-Nim Debian package) ??

Either way, great work on getting this into Debian :-)

I think nimble should be part of nim in these package systems. It seems to me that "gem" is always part of the Ruby packages, and it's very convenient.

A nimble package is right the next on the list.
