   Node.js devs, imagine npm doesn’t exist. Instead, if you’re nice, you make a list of your dependencies in your README and everyone installs them manually. (Seriously.) Also, you can list names any way you like. So, if a library is called libclutter-1.0-dev, list it as clutter, libclutter, clutter-1.0, … and people will magically know you meant libclutter-1.0-dev (or, more likely, they’ll do an, e.g., apt search clutter to try and find out wtf you meant). Welcome to C/Vala development in 2021.

     @ekaitz_zarraga It has only been a little over three decades, so, yeah, relatively new ;)

     @ekaitz_zarraga I hear you. You gotta laugh or you’d just lose it given how ass-backwards everything is.
