[FEAT] List of currently unsupported package managers

[AlbydST]

I'm making a list of package managers currently unsupported by fastfetch, currently I have:

• AppImage
• Devbox
• Rad
• ScratchPKG
• TCE
• CPT
• KISS
• Pacstall
• NPM
• pip
• Bonsai
• URPMI
• Birb

(Let me know if I have missed any!) Are these going to be supported in the future?

npm and pip will not be supported as they are programming language specific. Pacstall packages should be counted as dpkg if it works like AUR for pacman.

I don't know others. They won't be supported if no one would like to contribute.

Where would I find in the code to add the package managers. I want to add Appimage

If you are going to count Pacstall packages, you should get the amount of files in /var/lib/pacstall/metadata.

Winget packages get shown as choco packages (even though I don't have Chocolatey installed)

@Elsie19 What does ls -l /var/lib/pacstall/metadata print?

@yesseruser That's a different issue. Please file a new one.

It just has pacstall metadata files. If you get the amount of files in that directory, you have the amount of packages pacstall is tracking.

@Elsie19 Please test the dev build

It works!

It works!

Winget packages are on Windows. You are using Ubuntu which Winget does not and will probably never support.

Oop! I replied to the wrong message. I meant to @CarterLi!
