Re: C/C++ development: anybody using conda/pixi for dependency management? Here's an example of compiling a C++ SDL program using pixi and the SDL dependency from conda-forge [1]. Seems viable as a replacement for things like vckpg [2] which only builds from source. I'm still researching this but it seems like rattler [3] is the tool to use to build/publish packages.

Plenty of raw information should be available here, the actual vcpkg repo: https://github.com/microsoft/vcpkg. Source: over 1 year ago

Actually, there is: C++ Library Manager for Windows, Linux, and MacOS. Source: over 1 year ago

The installation is described in the readme of vcpkg on github and is straightforward: clone the project, execute the installation script and you are ready to go! - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago

You didn't ask about this, but I think its worth mentioning Conan and vcpkg. Of the two I have found vcpkg easier to work with, but both can be good solutions. Combining one of these package managers with CMake presets can make getting a project setup on a new machine almost trivial (great for CI or onboarding new devs). Source: over 1 year ago

However, that "pacman -S" command has lots of switches (see section 1.1.1 ==> https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/pacman ). Source: 6 months ago

Automatic installation of packages during building utilizes pacman and aurman with the supported "package sources" being:. Source: 11 months ago

* Package management and DNF syntax usage are big topics. Follow the Arch Wiki example for the "pacman" package management tool ==> https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/pacman. Source: 11 months ago

Should be possible as the Arch distro SteamOS is built on includes pacman. Source: 12 months ago
