"Just use cli bro" yeah okay, yay might be less trouble, but I like being able to keyword-search the AUR and flatpak and stuff.

I moved from Manjaro linux(icky, run by libertarians I think, smelly) to EndeavourOS(based, presumably run by commies and anarchsists, sexy) for a bunch of reasons, like Endeavour runs really well even from an old hard drive, it's a great OS. I kind of miss Pamac though.

From Mint to Manjaro I've always preferred the graphical program-installation way, which is probably windows brainworms that just won't leave. Having to yay s and remember xfce4-sensors-plugin without typos is a lot more annoying than just punching "sensors" into a search bar, so Endeavour's lack of a GUI installer is kind of troublesome to me. I tried just installing Pamac but it's made by Manjaro devs and errors out with exit status 8 or 4 more than half the time. Instead of digging in my heels and yelling about wanting Pamac to work, what else can I use on Endeavour to achieve the same ends?

    Oh, you can just go on a website and search up stuff... Now it's really idiocy blob-no-thoughts and then you can just yay -Syu... huh...

    Y'know pamac kind of runs like dogshit on old computers anyway tbh.

      I just use pamac and Bauh on Endeavour anyhow, I can't be bothered with CLI anymore. I'm sure other people get little goosbumps and feel like they're diving into the matrix when they're on the terminal, but I just find it really annoying and would rather have a GUI.

        Okay, so by chance do you know much about these silly exit status 8/4 errors I'm getting installing pamac? Never heard of Bauh before.

          Bauh is the same type of program as Pamac, but I like how it easily supports flatpak
