minus-square Lem453 ( @Lem453@lemmy.ca ) linkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoCan AUR be used by other distros like Debian or fedora?
minus-square D_Air1 ( @D_Air1@lemmy.ml ) linkfedilinkarrow-up3·1 year agoTechnically yes, but practically no. For the same reasons that manjaro might struggle with the aur even though it is technically arch based.
minus-square trevor (he/they) ( @trevor@lemmy.blahaj.zone ) linkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·1 year agoUnfortunately, no, but you can get kind of close for Debian distros with LURE. EDIT: Apparently LURE is supposed to be distro-agnostic, so it’d probably work for EL too.

minus-square trevor (he/they) ( @trevor@lemmy.blahaj.zone ) linkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·1 year agoYeah. I haven’t looked at the code that closely, but it looks like they account for various differences between distros.
