Change your distro. Or become packager itself. I don't know much about Linux packaging, to be honest, but I found that packaging software for FreeBSD is not much harder than install it locally. If it builds Ok, it is easy to package. If it has problems with build, it will be hard for you anyway - you need to be developer to fix build for you, no matter will you prepare package or not.

Changing distros isn't an option for me. > Or become packager itself. While this would technically solve the problem, nobody wants to do this. Instead I use Homebrew (Linuxbrew) which just works.
- blacklion 4y agoIsn't Linuxbrew package manager too? :)
- shepherdjerred 4y agoHah, yes you're right. Unfortunately it doesn't work on Linux arm64, so I'm kinda screwed there.
