Fake-pacman is a terminal program for macOS and Linux that will make it look like you are installing a pacman package.
Just run the executable, type any package name and watch it "install" the package.
First you have to install ncurses, just run sudo pacman -S ncurses
on Arch, or sudo apt install libncurses-dev
on Debian.
Then to compile it, run make linux
.
Install gcc by running brew install gcc
, and install ncurses by running brew install ncurses
. If you want to compile a universal executable that will run on all macs, you also need Xcode Command Line Tools, install it by running xcode-select --install
.
Then to compile type make macX86
or make macARM
depending on what procceser you have. To make the universal executable run make macUNI
