Archlinux got a BIG donation, to replace pacman with a rust rewrite "ALPM".
>>107854169Based. Everything should be rewritten in Rust.
>>107854177Trvvve, sis. Maby I'll give arch a shot now.
>>107854169>Another Jewduke post.Shalom, consider buying an ad and/or killing yourself
>>107854169Is it better than Pacman?
>>107854177I agree. It's time to sabotage software slop. May the real world win.
>rust is the programming language for trannies>arch is the linux distro for tranniesI don't see the issue here, the userbase is the same
>>107854226You will install the torah package with ALPM, goy.
>>107854169>Germany: Does sth>Jews: I hate thatmany such cases
>>107854263>>107854272lmfao
>>107854169>Why!?Probably because somebody applied for a grant to do that. It's a western liberal government. There's a whole class of people that can apply for grants to do nonsense so they never actually have to work a real job.
>>107854169There's already paru, why can't they just extend it beyond its AUR helper functionality to use its own functions? But not my money so eh.
>>107854169>One Question: Why?It's pretty fucking simple. Somebody who likes writing Rust as a hobby knows somebody working for the government so they set up a fake contract to siphon the taxpayer money. It literally happens in every sector of the government. It's just a way to get some of the govt funds to your friends/family.
>>107854376>knows somebody working for the governmentToo generous. The someone in question is likely working in government themselves. In the civil service it's called "working off the side of your desk." It's where you have insider knowledge of government requirements for a contract and nail the bid to a tee, or are somehow able to create government contracts and give them to a company owned by yourself. Happens in most western countries. In Canada a guy working for the federal government got them to pay him $50 million to make a web front end that added a single column to a database. Ended up turning into a bit of a scandal when another company proved that they could have made it in a matter of a couple days for a few thousand dollars if the bidding hadn't been restricted. Seems like half of Ottawa's politicians and civil service were involved in some kind of healthcare start up or another during covid too.I'm sure this is just a less egregious version of that. Some government worker finagling xerself a contract.

luddites can never explain why rewriting in Rust is such a big deal, it's not like they can stop you from maintaining and using pacman, sure, they might add some breaking changes, but you aren't a nocoder and can update pacman to support that, or are you? Because if you are incapable of maintaining pacman, yiur opinion on this is worthless. You were eating shit from arch for decades but now one irrelevant thing changes and you get mad.
>>107854169if Rust isn't compromised after all this government shilling I'm actually gonna schizo the fuck out
not using alpmparu is niggerlicious as fuck and i refuse to use rust from that alone
so you can just give a bunch of money and they'll do anything?let's make a gofund me to rewrite the core utils in pascal
>a third party developer receives a grant to create tools that work alongside Pacman in Rust, that Arch Linux did not ask for and has not implemented or even commented on>headline reads "Germany Paid Arch Linux $500K"What a hack.
>>107854229Literally anything is better than pacman.
>>107854373ask in a non zogduke spam thread if you're interested in an actual technical discussion.you know, like the thread we already had about this @ >>107835347.this goes for everyone else too.
>>107854970*LOUD INCORRECT BUZZER*
>>107854169stop spamming this boomeryes, Rust will replace all of you white males soon enoughdeal with it and shut up
