emerge

wget && make install

pacman -S

apt-get and the other assorted utilities like apt-whatever and dpkg.

Aptitude is a front-end. I just avoid it and I have tons of experience with Debian/Ubuntu.

fuk the police, dnf life

whenever i update my repos i never not want to know if there are any updates so aptitude

aptitude is just an ncurses apt-get/dpkg interface you dumbass

Yum
Dnf
Git

apt update && apt upgrade && apt autoremove
why do you faggots complicate everything

dis

Xbps-install

just apt

apt-get is a dpkg frontend, aptitude is an apt-get frontend. KISS.

make install

>not git clone
shit taste

>git
Not everyone has such new and advanced technology.

This but apt update; apt dist-upgrade -y.

apt is Ubuntu thing, right? Sound like another useless invention.

It's on debian as well.

yum

FIRST POST
BEST FUCKING POST.

slackpkg install

>no version of softwares
Normally:
"APT" is just for simple things.
Aptitude is front-end to apt. The best option for a everyday use.
"apt" is a complex front-end to dpkg. Just use if you know how to use it.

This isn't a humor thread, user

The OP did a stupid question so deserve a stupid answer.

wget github.com/git/git/archive/v2.13.1.zip -O git.zip
unzip git.zip
cd git-*
make configure
./configure --prefix=/usr
make all doc info
sudo make install install-doc install-html install-info


and then to incest things up you can update git by using the source from the git repository you downloaded using git
git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git.git

...

Apt is a Debian thing and was one of the most useful inventions in Linux history.

Fucking Christ, why do they let 16 year olds post here?

portage

/thread

if you use && instead of ; the second argument executes only if the first one succeeded. wouldnt that be better?

MODS

Yes, almost always

It does not really matter. Typing ; is faster than typing && so there's that.

what if your program doesnt have a git repository?

What if you're a faggot?

>Typing

get into aliases please

alias sysupdate='sudo sh -c "apt update && apt dist-upgrade -y "'

To this day I'm not sure what the core difference is supposed to be, but sometimes one can resolve some tricky situation that the other can't, so I sometimes try aptitude when apt-get doesn't get something right.

why is a seperate shell necessary here?

What retarded packages are you niggers downloading so as to completely break your system on an upgrade?

I prefer pkgtools. Really transparent in how they work, you can use tar, ash and vi instead and they're written in quality POSIX sh.

Aptitude's interface makes no sense to me idk

calling sudo twice sucks
