@paulo@mario The blame is on this meme distro maintainers fucking up the dependencies as well. There is no good reason why installing steam would result in removing the desktop metapackage.
@mint@mario true, it's why i never recommend poopos but still, the gui package manager said it could install steam then he went on the terminal and completely ignored all the error messages
of course, we all know he did it intentionally so he could have content for his youtube channel
@mint@paulo@mario yeah. considering that this was the ootb state for the system. try to install steam? apt and dpkg kill your system. this has been a thing for ages in debian based distros and it took until linus hit it for it to be fixed
@MischievousTomato@paulo@mario I love how installing some trivial stuff like {screen,neo}fetch pulled half of Xorg if you didn't specify --no-install-recommends.
@mario@MischievousTomato@paulo I just went with syslinux on my system. Would've went with gummiboot/systemd-boot, but there isn't a standalone package for it and I'm lazy.
Arch can also have some crazy fuckups! That GRUB corruption recently i.e. But I've never had any of problems that wouldn't be easily fixed in a matter of minutes on Arch/Artix for years by now
i like systemd a lot for server hosting, for my personal machine it's overbloated and why do i need to go through the kernel when i can just have my local demons be started by the WM?
