How do you guys get software that is not in your distribution's repositories?

Gatekeeping the word "software" here?
Here's something not in the AUR. Tested on arch

[-] cm0002@lemmy.world 20 points 1 month ago

Clearly we need an Arch version of rule 34 and rule 35

Rule 34a: If linux software exists, it's in the AUR. No exceptions.

Rule 35a: If linux software is not in the AUR, it will be made available in the AUR.

I don't intend on pushing that one to the AUR. It's not worth it.
Maybe I'll make an AppImage at most.

I don't know any formal requirements for it being on AUR, but I just feel like this one does not fit there.

Sorry, I've already posted the new internet rules and they took immediate effect, I'll have to report this incident to...the council.

Someone will put the AppImage in AUR

1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
    • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
    • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    • Please report posts and comments that break these rules!
