- [issue 86369](https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/86369)
@ttuegel I get the sense [you support this idea of declarative
wrappers](https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/86369#issuecomment-626732191).
For anyone else interested in a summary, the issue is a bit complex, so once
you'll read the design of this RFC, and see examples of what the POC
implementation of declarative wrappers [is capable
of](https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/85103#issuecomment-614195666), I hope
you'll see how declarative wrappers will solve this issue.
@ttuegel with declarative wrappers, we can symlink all qt plugins into 1
directory and wrap the executable with only 1 `QT_PLUGIN_PATH` in their
environment, which should decrease the plugin load of every qt package.
## Issues _possibly_ fixable by declarative wrappers (?)
