Arch really does have the most straightforward packaging system. Can you write a Bash script? Cool. You can package your application for Arch very easily.
Unfortunately, from my testing back when I used Arch, a lot of packages in the AUR didn’t meet packaging guidelines, so while quickly writing a PKGBUILD is easy, writing it correctly requires a bit more effort, especially regarding the dependencies. IIRC

is often enough, but ideally packages should be built in clean chroots as well to make sure they build everywhereYeah, while lots of people have plenty of other reasons for using Arch. The packaging system is my personal favorite. I have made packages for deb and rpm based systems before, but Arch is just so dead simple with little scripts preinstalled to make it even easier.
Cool.
Lol, the hardcoded linebrakes, haven’t seen that for a while, what a glorious mess.
