Dependencies:
Old ass library version from 2004
apt/dnf/pacman: package not found
library package was last available 15 years ago before it was dropped to move to the next legacy version
App package was available right up until last year until it was dropped for development inactivity
Absolutely no one has a compiled version of old ass library
Attempting to compile old ass library results in 30 other old ass package dependencies
How in the actual world was the maintainer compiling this up to last year
It worked on their machine
They have old/orphaned dependencies on their machine. It’s hanging on a by thread. They have no idea the packages have disappeared years ago. The house of cards is a bit flip away from collapsing.
Why docker was created be like
Why even use releases? Everyone can build everything for themselves. ‘Normal Users’ are just lazy, everyone wants to know how every piece of software is built for their system, it’s not like they have other stuff to do.
Nobody likes to figure out dependencies. And C++ template errors are sometimes completely crazy.
Casual Linux things that get normal people running from the os in fear.
