Add hyfetch to Homebrew

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Add hyfetch to Homebrew. This will simplify installing and keeping hyfetch up-to-date.

Describe the solution you'd like A clear and concise description of what you want to happen.

brew install hyfetch

And have both hyfetch and neowofetch installed. Ideally, I think it should also replace the current neofetch Homebrew formula.

Describe alternatives you've considered

• Install using pip It works fine. But the problem comes with upgrading. Since pip doesn’t have a dependency resolver, pip -U --all is not a thing. I’d also prefer to avoid messing with my Python environment.

• Use a venv It should work fine, if I add a symlink in ~/.local/bin, keeping my system’s Python environment untouched. But the other points still remain.

Additional context

I’d like to be able to use neowofetch without having to mess with my Python environment (or having to make a venv).

From the Universal Install I am looking at the Makefile and noticed two things:

1. It installs neofetch rather than neowofetch which might introduce a collision with the neofetch formula

This could be solved by marking hyfetch as conflicting with neofetch. Or, alternatively, add a make install-neowofetch. I think the first is better, since there's hardly a reason to want to have both installed.

2. It doesn't install hyfetch

I don't know if using pip install in a Homebrew formula is allowed. What would it take to add a make install-all that installs both neofetch and hyfetch? Or, is there a better alternative to using make?

Side note: the artifacts for hyfetch would need to be added to https://github.com/dylanaraps/neofetch/archive/refs/tags/7.1.0.tar.gz if a make install-all is added.

Thoughts?

I'm not very familiar with Homebrew's package system, but the alternative to pip would be python setup.py build and then python setup.py install --prefix=#{prefix}. That will build hyfetch, and then copy both it's binary and neofetch as neowofetch to $prefix/bin/. So if Azalea prefers to keep the Makefile as is, that is the change you would have to make in your Homebrew PR.

hyfetch has been added to Homebrew as of this commit https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/commit/270dc19435c65e085ce7180c19e8816dace2365e
