Insert Pacman (Arch linux package manager) in puppyremaster?

#1 Post by dog_dancer »

Hello,

Would be possible insert pacman package manager with the pet package manager in puppy linux and both of them works? So that you can install pet packages and pac packages?

thanks

No. Arch packages will only work in a Puppy completely built with Arch packages. It's not just a matter of adding a different package manager. Even pet packages are built for specific puppy versions and will not necessarily work in all of them.

If you want to use pacman and Arch packages, you could try Archpup. Info here (but all the download links are broken):
