Have a look at nala! It needs some depencies but is a huge upgrade
The worst UI?
Clearly you've never used zypper dup
Hahaha zypper is hell. This must have looked cool when internet speed was slow. But its just horrible.
One of the things that keeps me from staying with OpenSUSE.
That, and its overzealous security policy.
Mind to elaborate? That sounds like a good thing.
It would be a good thing if you want to have stuff inaccessible by your users. Reasonable assumptions when you're the IT department with the company workstations. Not so reasonable when you just want to have a working PC for yourself (and probably your family).
The other day, I gave up on my Tumbleweed system when an update for some reason rendered my living room PC unable to connect to internet.
Maybe it was done in a good reason. Maybe it's supposed to give me some protection of some sort. Would I need that protection? Definitely not if it keeps me (and other family members) to watch youtube.
If anyone wants to attack me thru that thing, I'd say go for it. I got nothing but my Netflix & Spotify creds. They can try infecting my media library, which I can just wipe since I got multiple copies of it.
Right now, I got Debian running on all my systems. I get to configure each of them to be as secure as it needs to be without having my operations hindered.
Ah ah i will one day.
I clearly agree, apt is ugly and even synaptic making it better. But like i said, while ago when I used synaptic I did break my packages and I got to use dpkg and apt, to repair.
Since, I guess, I'm on a PTSD about it and now just use apt or dpkg, when using a Debian or Debian based system.
But I will listen to you, and for sure will give it a try
Nala is an apt wrapper, it just displays stuff better, automates updates and automatically chooses the fastest mirror (thats the stuff I know)
Normally like synaptic no ?
I dont know why a (tui) wrapper should cause stuff apt doesnt. Its likely an apt problem.
No that was an synaptic issue, dont remember now the specific issue,
But it didnt managed well, certainly a bug at the bad moment for me at this time XD
But hey i dont regret, i know how to manage a broken apt DB now XD. I guess.. x)
apt is easy to use and read. I haven't dreamed of searching for a shiny replacement because there's no problem to solve.
Debian made me to only love apt and dpkg.
Omg apt is like the worst UI there is.
