sorry for the stupid question, but I'm really don't know how to install packages in this environment, also I didn't used to deal with lua and ninja. Can you please tell me how to install any package from /src/oasis ? whatever, thank you for your amazing projects.

The README in the qemu image contains a section "Rebuilding the system from source". Follow those instructions, then edit config.lua to include the packages you want in the fs table. Then, build again and merge to / with samu commit && git -C / merge.

For example, if you want to install the sfeed package, you might make a change like this:

-       {sets.core, sets.extra, sets.desktop, exclude={'^include/', '^lib/.*%.a$'}},
+       {sets.core, sets.extra, sets.desktop, 'sfeed', exclude={'^include/', '^lib/.*%.a$'}},
