apt is the user interface to apt-get to use on the console. It gives your readable feedback.

Does pacman have progress bars?

apt is better -- it's what the command should always have been. Do other package managers have this shitty separation? Is there a pacman-get and a pacman-cache etc? No.

>he uses apt over nix-env

When you need something other than install/remove, you'll still use apt-cache show or apt-key add.

void has a non-monlithic package manager. it's what would follow the unix philosophy more closely. imo doesnt matter but I really love void

>Samefag confirmed

apt can do apt-cache as well

> He doesn't write his own package manger

Why is it "apt" or "pacman" or whatever instead of "install-package" which is more logical? Are there systems with multiple package managers so they have to be referred to by some irrational hard to remember pretend name?

Make an alias for it if it bothers you

It bothers me that it is the norm and there are no standards for trivial things, so new people have difficult time with trivial things on the terminal. I work with many different distributions at the same time and it's very tiring to have to remember all this shitfest of names and flags or carry own bash_config with substandard aliases everywhere.

Once upon a time, apt didn't exist, there was only dpkg, which was just a contraction of Debian PacKaGe tool. It's still there, its what apt uses under the hood. But since its low level they wrote a front end for it with more features, the Advanced Packaging Tool. APTitude and synAPTic get their names from words that include the sequence "apt", since they're apt frontends.

rpm is the Red hat Package Manager. yum was ported over from Yellow Dog Linux, it was the Yellow dog Update Manager. pacman is just some guy making a pun on a famous arcade video game with a PACkage MANagement program.

Apt just collects the most common commands from apt-get, apt-cache etc.

If they are totally different package managers, why can't they have their own names as well? It's not very common but people might build LFS and choose their package manager freely. I think it's possible to even have more than one at a time. It's kind of like asking to rename Firefox to Browser. Actually that happens too now that I think about it.

Also people who are new to Linux world can choose Ubuntu or Mint which have graphical tools for software installing and updating. They don't have to learn the names right from the start. In your case if you have to use several package managers, do you mean that different package managers shouldn't even exist or that they should all have the same commands and flags? It would be easier to just switch them all to one specific distro.

I use Yum

Literally the worst package manager.

Enjoy you're 8GB Ram usage to perform an install or update a package.

Sad

isn't apt-get the newer one

>Tfw I still have to use apt-cache or apt-mark for certain commands.
Feels like I've been cheated on, man.

For some reason adding:

APT::Color "0";

to "/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/99local" doesn't work for me. I wonder why...

come at me brul
