the colorful language was proportional to the enthusiasm. |

decent info, even though the excited person who wrote it |
16 |
made me roll my eyes (I clicked for the info ::shrug::) |

as per this thread: NuGET (mentioned in the article) is |
19 |
something I had briefly considered trying to hook into: |
20 |
|
21 |
an upstream decided that one of their own libraries (it |
22 |
was written / maintained by upstream) should be unbundled |
23 |
rather than vendored, but instead of giving it standalone |
24 |
packaging, they decided to make it only available via |
25 |
NuGET. Since I had never used .NET before, I had no idea |
26 |
what that even was, initially. It was a "an experience". |
27 |
|
28 |
dependencies which can't otherwise be satisfied is the |
29 |
point of the original poster / creator of this thread: |

The problem with something like NuGET, is that I don't |
39 |
know how to safely support the package manager itself. |

|
41 |
I think it's a terrible idea to let "something like that" |
42 |
loose on a gentoo system... |

^ I guess they officially support mac, but still. |
47 |
what happens when the developer of a package manager |
48 |
decide they need root access to your system, but then |
49 |
do things "their way"? I've got some concerns. |
