Over a two-month period, contributed to build systems and package management in Nix and Rust, focusing on reliability and reproducibility. In the srid/nixpkgs repository, upgraded the pmbootstrap package to version 3.0.0, introducing a new multipath-tools dependency and migrating the source retrieval domain to GitLab. Enhanced the build process by adding a dedicated test case to validate the updated workflow, supporting smoother future maintenance. In hmemcpy/nixpkgs, delivered the BoilR 1.9.6 release by updating dependencies, removing outdated patches, and improving native build inputs. These efforts strengthened CI integration and ensured consistent, reproducible builds across both projects.
