That's true for some definition of 'use', yes. If you add foo to your profile and it is downloaded from a substitute (as opposed to being built from source on your machine), then you'll have to download bar as well, but not necessarily baz.Just to be clear, given: (package (name "foo") (inputs `(("bar", bar))) (native-inputs `(("baz", baz))) ... ) If I install "foo", "foo" will **always** be able to use the files in "bar" but will not (may not?) be able to use the files in "baz"?
