Expecting me to know how to compile shit

I was asking him not to post anime while being retarded, not to not post anime, retard.

>not using app stores

Are you from the past

Sure. It was founded as such but evolved into something totally different. Face it. You fucking skinny weebs are the minority now and we chads want you out. Get out of my way virgin.

>have to install something
>need to use the command prompt instead of just having an install wizard
lmao these gnucucks are fucking deranged

Ironic shitposting is still shitposting.

This.
Jow Forums took over this trap infested hell hole and we kind of like it here now.

GNU/Linux will purify the vile existance of proprietary (((swindling))).

Also anime is for basedfags without a racial identity or culture that leeches off of asians.

look for readme/compile/build/install files, needed special instructions are typically provided
for a lot of things,
./configure
make
make install
will do the job, if you see a 'makefile' and no instructions, this is what you're expected to do, some simpler programs don't have an 'install' function (if you don't know what to do with the built binary, then you probably have no use for that program)

Well you're a SILLY HEAD >:3

That's why you click this tab, OP

./configure

>makes your binary and installs it for you.

>Also anime is for basedfags
Yes anime likers are indeed BASED

Would it make you happy if someone wrote a script that forced you to click through a pointless wizard every time you wanted to install/upgrade a package?

>expecting developers to compile their precious programs for every minor OS and proprietrary OS

and what version of libraries are you running? Ones that are compatible with a pre-compiled binary?
Are you even running glibc? Or musl? Are you on x86? ARM?

>devs are such a lazy cunts
Find me someone that thinks compiling for every known architecture and statically linking libraries is a good idea. Protip: you can't.

There's a damn good reason you give source and not a binary.

>that smug anime face
Okay, you've convinced me, I'll use Windows. Where can I download the source code so I can compile it myself?

Go back to Windows and enjoy your malware infested exes, faggot.

Linuxfags will defend this shit

>t. can't replace a broken harddrive

>trying to run some random binary you downloaded off some random website that depends on deprecated libraries likely full of security holes, without even checking if it was even supported on your distro
no i won't defend that because the problem is twofold:

1) the people who are trying to ship you broken ass software
2) you for expecting the same janky solutions you can get away with on windows (installing random dlls from malware sites you found on google) to work anywhere else

also just so you know

>type password
sudo has a default timeout of 5 minutes which can be extended or disabled, but very few of those steps you've mentioned should take longer than 5 minutes
>type the whole link
your terminal emulator should support X11 clipboards, otherwise you can use xclip or lynx within tmux/screen

>Find me someone that thinks compiling for every known architecture and statically linking libraries is a good idea. Protip: you can't.
Pro tip: I think this is a great idea for many use cases. You just need to automate it. Stop being such a lazy fuckass that you cant be bothered to automate your laziness.
>what is jenkins ci
Do you know how amazing it is to reduce your binary image footprint to a single executable? It just works and it doesnt matter what other dependencies are fucking installed. It brought them along for the ride like a responsible executable should. Do you realize that static linking is also the only way to guarantee memory alignment for performance-critical items involving complex datastructures? AAA games would run like dogshit if they didnt static link across huge portions of their codebases.

Also, compiler optimizations do not work across DLL boundaries. If you are statically linking, your object files are all in a flat hierarchy and optimization can take place across the entire scope of items as opposed to individual restrictive scopes.

OP's using Windows, he doesn't have a convenient way of installing those dependencies, and yet he blames the author(s) rather than switching to a non-shit OS

>Githubfags are cancer
Then stop getting your software from a source code repository, dumbass.
There's a limit to how retarded one can be.
