Wouldn't it be easier to make a `snap install x x x x ` Or `flatpak install x x x x` script ? Isn't this type of issue what those two project's aim to solve ?

- azathothas 3y agoHi, I am the package maintainer for https://github.com/metis-os/hysp-pkgs https://github.com/metis-os/hysp-pkgs (The default source that's shipped with hysp) To address your concerns: 1. Hysp is a single binary (Statically compiled), download & run anywhere kind of package manager. 2. Hysp, doesn't care about dependencies, and neither does it attempt to install anything that's not specifically defined in the config. 3. Due to 1 & 2, you do not need go or rust or anything else installed to install something. No dependencies whatsoever. This saves enormous space, storage & time. 4. As installing random binaries from random sources is not advisable due to security concerns, the pkg-source can be self-hosted by anyone and hysp can be configured to use that instead of the default source.
