In this tutorial, we will learn how to install bin from the GitHub repository on Arch Linux.
Before we start, ensure that:
To install bin on Arch Linux, we need to first install its dependencies. Open the terminal and enter the following command:
sudo pacman -S base-devel git
This command installs the Git package and the necessary development tools.
To download bin from the GitHub repository, use the 'git clone' command. Enter the following command:
git clone https://github.com/w4/bin.git
This command downloads the bin repository from GitHub to your local machine.
Now, navigate to the bin directory using the command:
cd bin
To build bin, use the make command as follows:
make
This command compiles and builds the bin package.
Once the build process is complete, install bin using the following command:
sudo make install
This command installs the bin package and its files to the system.
To verify that bin has been installed correctly, enter the following command:
which bin
This should output the path of the bin binary file that you just installed. If it does not, ensure that you have followed all the previous steps correctly.
In this tutorial, we have learned how to install bin on Arch Linux from the GitHub repository. We have installed the dependencies, downloaded the bin package, built it, and installed it. With bin installed, you can now enjoy the benefits of its CLI utility for managing binary packages.
