Overview

This page lists all packages defined in packages.txt and installed automatically by the dotfiles installation script. The installation uses Paru, an AUR helper that handles both official repository and AUR packages.
Packages are installed automatically when you run ./install. The script only installs missing packages, so re-running is safe.

​
Installation

All packages are installed automatically when you run: 
./install
The installation script compares packages.txt with installed packages and only installs what’s missing: 
missing=$(comm -23 <(sort packages.txt) <(pacman -Qq | sort))
if [ -n "$missing" ]; then
  paru -S --needed --noconfirm $missing
fi
You can safely re-run the installer. It won’t reinstall packages that are already present on your system.

Managing Packages

To add a new package to the dotfiles:

  2. Run ./install to install it
  3. Commit the updated packages.txt
To remove a package:
  1. Remove it from packages.txt
  2. Manually uninstall with paru -Rns <package>
Removing a package from packages.txt doesn’t automatically uninstall it. You need to manually remove it with Paru/Pacman.
