Linux package manager #540

Hi Would it make sense to make an installer for using the build package manager in the linux system? |
Beta Was this translation helpful? Give feedback.

Hello! This is not on the roadmap. I'd personally not want to add it to core, but it could potentially be an interesting use case for the future, when internals are more extendable. As for avoiding dependencies, are there any specific examples you have in mind? The requirements for the base installer tools is pretty minimum (basically just curl or wget, gzip, tar, unzip). As for avoiding runtime requirements (e.g. Node), I'm not sure a system package manager would help (unless it vendors the runtime)? |

You are right, I was annoyed that Pyright required npm and node, but you are right that this is runtime dependencies, so using pacman for installing pyright would give me those packages as well. |
