In this tutorial, we will guide you on how to install the wantguns-bin package which is available on GitHub. The package is designed for Arch Linux, so let's get started.
Before installing the wantguns-bin package, we need to install its dependencies. Use the following command in the terminal:
sudo pacman -S git binutils make gcc fakeroot
This will install the required dependencies for compiling and building the package.
After installing the dependencies, we can clone the wantguns-bin repository using the following command:
git clone https://github.com/wantguns/bin.git
This will clone the repository to your current working directory.
Now that we have downloaded the repository, we can build and install the package. Navigate to the cloned repository using the following command:
cd bin
Next, use the makepkg command to build and install the package:
makepkg -sri
The -s option instructs makepkg to resolve and install package dependencies, and the -r option instructs it to remove any previously built packages. The -i option instructs it to install the package after building it.
The build process might take some time depending on your system's specifications.
After the installation is complete, you can verify it by checking whether the package is installed correctly:
pacman -Ql wantguns-bin
This command will list all the files that were installed by the wantguns-bin package.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed the wantguns-bin package on your Arch Linux system.
