Remove sudo as dependency #65

Closed dnorhoj closed 1 year ago

dnorhoj commented 2 years ago

I would really like to see support for doas, as I can't install pacui without having sudo installed.

As described here, sudo is a hard dependency of PacUI. It would not be a lot of work to add "doas", but it would make the code much more illegible. I want to avoid this.

If you want to use PacUI, i recommend to install it manually. After step 1, you can open the "pacui" file and search and replace "sudo" with "doas". Then, continue with step 2.

I am closing this ticket. Should you have further questions, please reopen it again.
