      Tbh these scripts are for my personal use, written in the way that makes sense for me. I only open sourced it as a joke an as an example of how reinventing your own wheel is not that hard sometimes, and comes with the benefit of doing just what you need it to do.

      Actually I was thinking of adding a sysget fallback, as I might need to do some debian/fedora hacking soon.

    For such a project, I think a different structure would make more sense. A structure where each supported package manager is a module on its own (like module/pacman.sh) and contains all the logic for this specific package manager. Those modules would only contain functions. And the main script with the main logic and loads in the module would not know or check what package manager it uses, but instead just runs the functions that are named the same in each module. But that would obviously require a major rewrite.

      Makes sense and you’re probably right, but I’ll tell you why I didn’t do it that way:

      1. I just did what came first to me
      2. I like the idea of the API defining the project structure
      3. When adding a new package manager, if that ever happens, I would like to see all other implementation of the same functionality on the same file, for help and inspiration

    I’m using nala (it’s on top of apt) and it’s pretty enough
