This is a program to automate installing things on an Arch system. I was frustrated having to manually install things that were not on pacman when installing things like ffmpeg-full. With this, it is completely automated! There are likely plenty bugs with this, as it's just a small side project and I have only tested this on my machine.
update: I made this before I found out that yay exists
To install, just download the zip folder and unzip it with a program of your choice.
Next, run the main.py
file in the folder with arguments.
The available options are --uninstall
and --install
.
For example, you'd run python main.py --install ffmpeg
.
Hopefully, if all goes well, it should properly install.
Although this was made with the intent to automate, you may have to enter the root password, or choose to remove a conflicting package.
Remember, at any point, you can press Ctrl+C
to cancel.
