Curl to shell is a result of Linux's fragmentation. It's the only way to provide a simple install process.

  If I were trying to distribute a package on Linux I’d be pretty intimidated by the number of package managers. I might start with Debian. Do an alpine package, then nope out. If the app was a server instead of a cli, I’d start with a docker image. I ended up giving up on installing Erlang on my little embedded system and went with the docker image instead.

    Props for mentioning Alpine, the only sane distro.
