minus-squareLem453@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up1·14 days agoCan AUR be used by other distros like Debian or fedora?
minus-squareD_Air1@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up3·13 days agoTechnically yes, but practically no. For the same reasons that manjaro might struggle with the aur even though it is technically arch based.
minus-squaretrevor@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·edit-214 days agoUnfortunately, no, but you can get kind of close for Debian distros with LURE. EDIT: Apparently LURE is supposed to be distro-agnostic, so it’d probably work for EL too.
