Software Integration

Package Managers

Wrappers for these are in package tools.

How to include in your scripts

The tools.sh shell is the only include you need in your scripts:

# shellcheck source=/dev/null
. ./bin/build/tools.sh

(see bin/build/identical/__tools.sh for an error-reporting loader)

Once included, all functions here are available for use.
