the level of vindication i felt seeing this
<sad_plan>
midfavila: yeah, ive seen it before. but im not overly convinced about its practility tbh
<midfavila>
what makes you say that?
<sad_plan>
because you have to manually build a package, then tar it yourself, all before you can install the package with pm.
<midfavila>
i don't really think that's much of a problem. that's how slackware does it by and large
<sad_plan>
although, you can probably write a wrapper of some sort for this, and create a port system with all of your packages instead
<midfavila>
yeb
<sad_plan>
im not familiar with slackware,. but it sounds combersome, as oposed to using kiss
<midfavila>
it's pretty easy actually
<midfavila>
the base system includes everything necessary for a basic setup by default, but you can select individual packages as you wish, and then if you need more software, you can either build it yourself or download a slackbuild script from slackbuilds official
<midfavila>
said script does all the work of building and generating the package and then you pop it in the system with pkgtool
<sad_plan>
I see
<sad_plan>
sounds easy enough. but less practical than kiss, as things are more separated

Busybox and Ash. Musl. Seems similar

why does everyone quit affter 10 minutes
<riteo>
floorcrawler if you're reading the logs I'd argue pretty similar indeed, although kiss is basically completely source-based and built around the idea that you have to tailor the system to your needs
<riteo>
want a funky dependency? Just `kiss fork name-of-the-package` and change the build flags
<riteo>
That's why I usually say that it's a weird mix between gentoo and alpine (I've never used gentoo though)
