APT-OS4 for Clib4

Posted on: Yesterday 18:33 #1

Amigans Defender

Meet apt-os4, a new package manager inspired by the famous Debian apt tool—but built specifically for the AmigaOS 4 ecosystem and the clib4 repository!

Its goal is to make installing, updating, and managing software on AmigaOS 4 as simple and reliable as on modern Linux systems.

apt-os4 fills this gap, bringing familiar command-line package management to AmigaOS 4 users. But here’s the key difference: apt-os4 is NOT designed for generic Linux packages. It is purpose-built for the clib4 repository, which provides native AmigaOS 4 binaries and libraries compiled with the clib4 C runtime. This ensures compatibility, stability, and a seamless experience for AmigaOS 4 users

Release (Alpha..): https://github.com/AmigaLabs/apt-os4/releases/tag/v0.1

I am a bit sad about that in the recent years less and less usage can be seen of dos.library/ReadArgs.
It was so elegant.

Anyway, thanks for your great work!

Just popping in

Just looked at source should be quite simple to add/replace ReadArgs parsing options.

Memento audere semper!

This software as created to use the same linux commands. That's why i've not used ReadArgs (like for example in Waffle code).
However i'm planning to create a Reaction GUI for it

P.S.
v0.2 is out with a small bug fixed

i'm really tired...

AWESOME man!!!

Ok, trying to build apt on amigaos4

So I need some dependencies:


#apt/

#apt install libarchive-clib4

Installing 'libarchive-clib4'

Package libarchive-clib4 installed

#apt install sqlite-clib4

Installing 'sqlite-clib4'

Package sqlite-clib4 installed

...

and lets see what I get

There is a problem on some packages that for some reasons are created with zstd that is not yet available in libarchive. I wrote it on clib4 repository wiki that should be used a specific flag when creating Deb files. Most probably clib4 Deb file is created without it. We'll fix it. Try other libraries to test it.
We'll fix it asap

@afxgroup

ok, no problem man, great work.
As you said some packages are "wrong":

Quote:

#apt install libbrotli-clib4
Installing 'libbrotli-clib4'
Exec: zstd
Error: Failed to open tarball from memory: Error closing child process
Package libbrotli-clib4 installed
#apt install libnghttp2-clib4
Installing 'libnghttp2-clib4'
Exec: zstd
Error: Failed to open tarball from memory: Error closing child process
Package libnghttp2-clib4 installed
#apt install libidn2-clib4
Installing 'libidn2-clib4'
Exec: zstd
Error: Failed to open tarball from memory: Error closing child process
Package libidn2-clib4 installed
#apt install libunistring-clib4
Installing 'libunistring-clib4'
Exec: zstd
Error: Failed to open tarball from memory: Error closing child process
Package libunistring-clib4 installed
#

Will retry later when those are fixed.
Keep the good work!!!!

BTW any plan to add a GUI? If I get it to build the commandline version I can try to add a simple GUI if you want.

If you add a gui would be awesome. I'm planning to add a reaction gui but if you are faster just do it and creata PR

v0.3 is online with zstd support and some small changes.

@K-L
Thad DSI is strange. I hope is not something related to X1000.

We are releasing a new clib4 today with some fixes.

Can you retry it once is released?

Yes, you can see two crashlogs (one from X1000 and one from Sam460):

https://amiga-ng.org/resources/CrashLo ... t_2025-08-25_17-35-41.txt

I forgot to use "sh" but it gives the same DSI on both systems anyway.

sh is not needed. I suppose you don't have any beta components. Isn't it?
