You are just guessing. No, they manually update those, because you need the checksum.
A tip never use any tool that downloads something without checking a checksum, because you have no idea if the source you are downloading is still the same, it could be anything.
Yeah no, most build scripts if they are worth their salt, will absolutely not pull the latest package from a given source. Because that is insane, 99% of the time they validate the download with a checksum, meaning that you have to update the checksum in the build script, or in the case of multiple downloads - multiple checksums.
Yes pacman is the underlying technology that enables aur to exist.
You have no idea, what you are talking about. And it’s starting to become to cringe to keep going, you’re either a troll or clueless.
Aur is not supported by Arch Linux. It’s a community repository that has build scripts yes, but you have either one download the build scripts and use pacman to install them, two use a pacman wrapper like yaurt to fetch them and install them for you using guess what pacman!
Just because the tool isn’t supported by the distro doesn’t matter in this case, because they solve the same issue!! You are installing packages from a repository that the community oversees. Your case for arch Linux was installing the latest version of an application.
Have you even pulled your head out of arch linux ass and looked att xbps? No, because I’m starting to doubt if you would understand it, and there are other distros that offer the same thing.
You keep straw maning
Bro, why do I even bother. makepkg is part of Pacman, you use pacman to install the package… Pacman is arch Linux package manager the same tool you use to install from aur.
Wrong again, xbps does this better than Pacman. Packtinstall works the same way, dude you have no Idea
I’m not new to Linux, I know what arch is. And Debian isnt the only alternative to arch. Like I said every Major distribution has community repositories.
Ubuntu has packstall, Fedora rpm fusion, opensuse probably has some aswell, void has community repositories in xbps. And guess what they are all pretty up to date.
I’m not going to install a Linux distro based on the community repository, I’m not even running any of the major distro, because I don’t care what packages are available. I have a few programs that I run, and it’s not that hard to make other programs work, when you know what to do.
Every major Linux dist has community repository, arch isn’t special. Arch users are like people doing CrossFit, dude No one cares if you use arch.
I don’t have issue with methods being 200 lines, as long as they have a singel concept and is easy to follow.
Yes, and you can travel to space with a rocket. Common what kind of argument is that. You forgot the steps in between.
Thanks for sending me to space in this rocket, but how do I get home.
Dude, they have under water cameras , you can swim with fucking whales with a huge ass cameras, I’m not going swimming with my phone. Fick all these ratings, it’s not like they would make it cheaper for you. Give me back changeable batteries, I’m not fucking fish.
I use windows at work, and it’s the most annoying OS. so many small annoying behaviours that Microsoft will never fix. If it was a Linux dist I could fix those things, I can’t pull the source code for the windows window manager and change the stuff I don’t like. Linux gives me that freedom, and I love Freedom.
And soon your you will pay streaming services to watch ads, it’s just a matter of time.
Bought the budget version, pixel 6a. I have nothing but good experience with it. It is the best phone I’ve had, never again spending money on flag ship phones. This shit cost me about $250, and it feels, looks good and faster than my previous bloatware s10 - which cost me $1100 brand new, the battery and the camera was shit, had it for 3 years, couldn’t stand having it another year.
In a couple of years I’ll by a new low budget phone. You don’t need a flag ship phone trust me, if it’s not for the camera, but then I’d buy an iPhone.
