🚨 Request to Linux app developers - please don't limit your app releases to Debian DEB packages.

Yes, Debian-based Ubuntu is the most widely used Linux distro, but many of us also use non-Debian-based distros like AlmaLinux, Rocky, Fedora, openSUSE, and the like.

Please also provide a repository, RPM, Flatpak, AppImage, or TAR file for installation on non-Debian distros. Thanks a bunch! ✌😄

I wrote a note about maintaining my own tap for #homebrew the #packagemanager.

I have decided to maintain my own tap for the first time because of the deprecations that will come into action later this year in around September 2026.

These deprecations are for #macOS software that has not signed or notarized to meet the macOS #Gatekeeper requirements.

Guys, I wanted to know how much the auto-categorization function of packages in a package manager would be in demand?

So, uh, I rambled about archlinux and pacman

Go give it a read, and of course, constructive criticism and corrections are welcome!

Been quietly building UPAC — an open-source package manager designed for immutable Linux systems — for a while now, and it's finally getting real shape.
It's a solo passion project, and honestly it's been a long road. If you're into Linux, packaging, or just like rooting for small FOSS projects, all possible help will be fine!

NuGet PackageReference for C++ Projects in Visual Studio - C++ Team Blog

Native C++ projects (.vcxproj) now support NuGet PackageReference, the same modern package management experience .NET developers have used for years. Available as an experimental feature in Visual Studio 2026 version 18.7.

NuGet Package Pruning: Cleaner Dependencies and Actionable Vulnerability Reports - .NET Blog

Package pruning in .NET 10 removes platform-provided packages from your dependency graph. With transitive auditing enabled by default, projects with these defaults have 70% fewer transitive vulnerability reports compared to projects using the previous defaults.
