First Look at LURE! Bringing AUR to All Linux Distros
|
||||||
|
======
|
||||||
|
LURE is a new open-source project that aspires to become the AUR for all distros.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
![First Look at LURE! Bringing AUR to All Linux Distros][1]
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**AUR** (Arch User Repository) is a community-driven repository for Arch-based Linux distributions.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Long story short:** it helps install packages not available in the official repositories and lets you get the latest releases.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
I found it helpful with my experience on [Manjaro Linux][2].
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Technically, AUR builds a package from the source and then utilizes the package manager (pacman) to install it.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
You can also explore more about it in our detailed guide:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
[What is AUR? How to use AUR in Arch and Manjaro Linux?][3]
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
📢 Now that you have a good idea about AUR, a **new open-source project**aims to bring the utility of AUR to all the distributions.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The project is called **Linux User REpository (or LURE).**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
> 💡 The LURE project is in its alpha stage, announced by the creator a few weeks back. So, it is entirely a work in progress.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### A Project Like This Already Exists?
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
![lure adding repo][5]
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**No.**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Developers have tried making an AUR alternative, but for a specific distribution. Like [makedeb Package Repository][6] for Debian.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
LURE is an ambitious idea that could work on any distribution of your choice.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
It seeks to be a tool that helps you create native packages for your distribution using a script similar to **PKGBUILD**.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
[Creating a PKGBUILD to Make Packages for Arch Linux - It’s FOSS][7]
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The developer mentions some of the technical details in a [Reddit announcement post][9]:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
> My project is called LURE, short for Linux User REpository. It builds native packages and then installs them using the system package manager, just like the AUR. It uses a build script similar to the AUR's PKGBUILD to build the packages.
|
||||||
|
>
|
||||||
|
> It is written in pure Go, which means that it has zero dependencies after it's built, other than any privilege escalation command (`sudo`, `doas`, etc.) and any one of the supported package managers, which currently are: `pacman`, `apt`, `apk` (Alpine Linux, not Android), `dnf`, `yum`, and `zypper`.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Sounds exciting!**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
[LURE Project Repo][10]
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
You can also explore more about it on its [GitHub mirror][11].
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Using LURE
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
You do not have to install an additional package manager to make it work; it works automatically with your system's package manager.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
So, if it does not find a package in its repo (or any of its added repo), it moves to the system's default repo and installs it from there. Just like I installed/removed **neofetch** on my system using the lure command:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
![lure neofetch remove][12]
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
While the project is in early development, it offers [binary packages][13] for various distributions allowing you to install and test them.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
![][14]
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Currently, its repository includes one project from the creator itself. But you can try to add a repo and build/install things.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
For the sake of convenience, I tried installing the package in its repo:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
![][15]
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The command looks like this:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
lure in itd-bin
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
On its [official documentation page][16], you can read more about its usage to build/install/add repositories.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Some of the planned features for future releases include:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* Automated install script
|
||||||
|
* Automated docker-based testing tool
|
||||||
|
* Web interface for repos
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### What Would Make It Better?
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Well, for starters, this is an excellent project. If you are someone who used Arch in the past or want to move away from Arch Linux, this will be a good tool for you.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
However, for most end-users and non-Arch Linux newbies, something like the [Pamac GUI package manager][17] with LURE support should be the icing on the cake.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Of course, at its current stage, it needs support from open-source contributors. So, if you like the idea, feel free to contribute improvements to the project!
