PACSTALL
The AUR Ubuntu never had
Pacstall will attempt to become the AUR Ubuntu wishes it had. It takes the AUR and puts a spin on it, making it easier to install programs without scouring github repos and the likes
You can run the command below to install Pacstall.
sudo bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://git.io/JsADh || wget -q https://git.io/JsADh -O -)" && sudo pacstall -A https://github.com/cutefishos-ubuntu/cutefish-pacstall
This will install foo. Equivalent of apt install
sudo pacstall -I foo
This will remove foo. Equivalent of apt remove
sudo pacstall -R foo
This will search for foo in repositories. Equivalent of apt search
sudo pacstall -S foo
Run this command with a github/gitlab url to add a repo
sudo pacstall -A
This will update pacstall's scripts
sudo pacstall -U
This will update packages. Equivalent of apt upgrade
sudo pacstall -Up
These are the basic commands, for more info, run pacstall -h
Pacstall has fully supported auto completions for the bash
, and fish
shells. For the ZSH
shell you can emulate the completions using the following commands.
Zsh can emulate bash completion scripts by default so all you have to do is add these to your .zshrc
or wherever you source things:
autoload bashcompinit
bashcompinit
source /usr/share/bash-completion/completions/pacstall
