- NixFlakeInstaller:
- Skip when running inside a Nix dev shell (IN_NIX_SHELL).
- Add PKGMGR_DISABLE_NIX_FLAKE_INSTALLER kill-switch for CI/debugging.
- Ensure run() respects supports() and handles preview/allow_failure cleanly.
- DebianControlInstaller:
- Introduce _privileged_prefix() to handle sudo vs. root vs. no elevation.
- Avoid hard-coded sudo usage and degrade gracefully when neither sudo nor
root is available.
- Improve messaging around build-dep and .deb installation.
- RpmSpecInstaller:
- Prepare rpmbuild tree and source tarball in ~/rpmbuild/SOURCES based on
Name/Version from the spec file.
- Reuse a helper to resolve the rpmbuild topdir.
- Install built RPMs via dnf/yum when available, falling back to rpm -Uvh
to avoid file conflicts during upgrades.
- PythonInstaller:
- Skip pip-based installation inside Nix dev shells (IN_NIX_SHELL).
- Add PKGMGR_DISABLE_PYTHON_INSTALLER kill-switch.
- Make pip command resolution explicit and overridable via PKGMGR_PIP.
- Type-hint supports() and run() with RepoContext/InstallContext.
- Docker entrypoint:
- Add robust CA bundle detection for Nix, Git, Python requests and curl.
- Export NIX_SSL_CERT_FILE, SSL_CERT_FILE, REQUESTS_CA_BUNDLE and
GIT_SSL_CAINFO from a single detected CA path.
- Improve logging and section comments in the entrypoint script."

Package Manager🤖📦
Kevins's Package Manager is a configurable Python tool designed to manage multiple repositories via Bash. It automates common Git operations such as clone, pull, push, status, and more. Additionally, it handles the creation of executable wrappers and alias links for your repositories.
Features 🚀
-
Installation & Setup:
Create executable wrappers with auto-detected commands (e.g.main.shormain.py). -
Git Operations:
Easily performgit pull,push,status,commit,diff,add,show, andcheckoutwith extra parameters passed through. -
Configuration Management:
Manage repository configurations via a default file (config/defaults.yaml) and a user-specific file (config/config.yaml). Initialize, add, delete, or ignore entries using subcommands. -
Path & Listing:
Display repository paths or list all configured packages with their details. -
Custom Aliases:
Generate and manage custom aliases for easy command invocation.
Installation ⚙️
Clone the repository and ensure your ~/.local/bin is in your system PATH:
git clone https://github.com/kevinveenbirkenbach/package-manager.git
cd package-manager
Install make and pip if not installed yet:
pacman -S make python-pip
Then, run the following command to set up the project:
make setup
The make setup command will:
- Make
main.pyexecutable. - Install required packages from
requirements.txt. - Execute
python main.py installto complete the installation.
Docker Quickstart 🐳
Alternatively to installing locally, you can use Docker: build the image with
docker build --no-cache -t pkgmgr .
or alternativ pull it via
docker pull kevinveenbirkenbach/pkgmgr:latest
and then run
docker run --rm pkgmgr --help
Usage 📖
Run the script with different commands. For example:
- Install all packages:
pkgmgr install --all - Pull updates for a specific repository:
pkgmgr pull pkgmgr - Commit changes with extra Git parameters:
pkgmgr commit pkgmgr -- -m "Your commit message" - List all configured packages:
pkgmgr config show - Manage configuration:
pkgmgr config init pkgmgr config add pkgmgr config edit pkgmgr config delete <identifier> pkgmgr config ignore <identifier> --set true
