@petaflot emerge is the Gentoo package manager.

petaflot commented 1 year ago

@TinCanTech I am fully aware of that.. but how is it relevant?

I mean, is it specified that apt is the package manager for all debian-derivates?

TinCanTech commented 1 year ago

Ha, for some reason i read this as remove: emerge not add: emerge. Sorry about that!

crazy how we all can sometimes read or hear the exact opposite of a message. no problem, and I'm glad you're not one of those who will start being aggressive when they realize they made a silly mistake.

ps: cool nick :-)

also and while I'm at it, on Gentoo dev-util/shellcheck has a massive load of masked dependencies, but there is also a dev-util/shellcheck-bin package :-] I suppose it may be worth to mention.

I think it's pretty silly to exhaustively list all available native packages for the most starred haskell project on github that exists in every repo under the sun. It would be a lot more sensible to just remove that line on the website and use a repology badge for the readme instead of listing each and every package manager under the sun.

just look at this madness ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/82055622/221859129-35ea2e5b-8083-420c-b122-18e1dec8c969.png)

yeah. better write sth like "most distros have it packaged" and add a link to "this madness" - or, as you stated, the "repology badge" (I didn't know that existed until now)
