My favorite is pacman because it is fast af but it has really weird syntax’s

    I’d like to put in my 2 cents for pkgsrc

    It’s not the sexiest, fastest or most full-featured but having a package manager that can bootstrap on anything even remotely smelling of Unix is awesome. And it sits cleanly next to whatever native package manager may exist.

    pkgsrc drew me into NetBSD and becoming an official developer was a proud and happy moment.

      Hey, thanks for suggesting pkgsrc! Do you have any experience using it on systems where you don’t have root access, i.e. you need to install software in your home directory? Is it a good fit for such scenarios?
