tar -xvzf blahaj.tar.gz
cd blahaj/
./configure
make
sudo make install

Now enjoy your Blahaj. (although depending on your system you may need to install dependencies after configuration. Blahaj is dependent on love, kindess, and affection.)

blahaj is dependent on love, kindness, and affection.

How do you install kindness and affection? They're not on the AUR:

[yetAnotherUser@discuss.tchncs.de ~]$ paru -S kindness affection
:: Resolving dependencies...
error: could not find all required packages:
    kindness (target)
    affection (target)

I have, somehow, found love packaged though. But it's not true love. It's LÖVE (a 2d game engine) spelled with an ASCII typeset so I'm pretty sure I have installed the wrong dependency.

I still use yay, is paru better?

yetAnotherUser@discuss.tchncs.de · 17 pts · 1y

paru is written in Rust, yay in Go.

That's pretty much the only difference. Since Rust is objectively superior to Go (I have never worked with either language so my opinion is as unbiased as can be) paru is clearly better.

Why not just use a package manager what is this 2003?

I'm compiling PETSc right now, because the versions that package managers ship is compiled without a niche option that I need

This is so true because gzip uses the Deflate algorithm :O

Good luck achieving that compression without the bag.

If you use pixz, you can get indexing-permitting-for-random access, parallel compression/decompression and (generally superior to gzip's LZ77) LZMA compression with tarballs.

$ sudo apt install pixz
$ tar cvf blahaj.tar.pixz -Ipixz blahaj/

Are you assuming my package manager!!??

tal@lemmy.today · 4 pts · 1y

Just giving an example; translate to your preferred environment!

https://lemmy.cafe/post/11766332, you either use yay or pacman. I don't know anything about Arch besides that because I use NixOS btw.

With yay:

yay -S pixz

With pacman:

pacman -S pixz
