(apologies for not replying back early, im not home for 5 hours)
Why are you running as root? And bruh.. using sudo when you're already using root account 
Also why a Deb? Arch uses tar.gz
i was talking to a relative and confused due to that
Use pacman to get stuff
its deb because thats what the original site gave me
You can't install Deb packages on arch
Deb are for Debian and such
aware of that but there should be an alternative
What are you trying to install
a download manager
Xdman exists in the aur
Free download manager
is it good?
And so on
is it installed or do i have to install manually with pacman
Wdym
is xdman installed by itself
What
Bruh, you're the one who installs stuff
you know some applications are installed by themselves automatically
Nope
Arch comes with nothing
Arch is a DIY distro
Don't expect stuff preinstalled
so, i will stick with the download manager you recommend
Unless you used an arch derivative
arch only not manjaro or something similar
Just use any app you like from arch repos or the aur
thanks for the advice
Then you should know that arch is a barebones system
It literally comes with nothing
No bloat, no DE/wm, no audio etc
alright then
You setup everything
i dont think awesome wm would affect anything too much
Do you even have an aur helper?
i dont think i do
.aw aur helper
You need one to get stuff nor available from arch repos
And don't Install debs or use dpkg. Nice way to break your install 
Tho debtap exists, it's not recommended
well i heard that it would work but break after updates
i guess it was wrong
You need to learn how Arch and pacman works
.aw pacman
.aw arch compared to other distros
.aw pacman Rosetta
pacman is an installer -S to install etc
will learn more later
thanks for the advice mate
Pacman is a package manager, not installer
well thats how i visualized
Same as apt or dnf
i dont think apt is available for arch
Why would you use apt on Arch? 
Arch uses pacman BRUH

yeah i know that it doesnt work on arch
Doesn't make sense
i know
beginner nonsense i get how it feels
It's like using bike wheels on a car 
well somebody did that
didnt do too much
Well.. time to read the arch wiki
That's the good thing of arch. Manuals are everywhere
welp i do read it but its not enough
Read it again
Then ask
๐
Also use flatpaks
.aw flatpak
So get paru and look for download managers on the aur
You can also use octopi
But it requires paru and yay
pacman -S paru, yes?
Octopi is a pacman and aur GUI Frontend
Nope. You have to build it
lol target not found i guess i have to built
... paru

Yup. Follow the GitHub manual
what does -si mean
just curious
... makepkg
#14537 ๐ฃ ```js
makepkg
Create a package which can be used with pacman.
Uses the PKGBUILD file in the current working directory by default.
More information: https://man.archlinux.org/man/makepkg.8.
Make a package:
makepkg
Make a package and install its dependencies:
makepkg --syncdeps
Make a package, install its dependencies then install it to the system:
makepkg --syncdeps --install
Make a package, but skip checking the source's hashes:
makepkg --skipchecksums
Clean up work directories after a successful build:
makepkg --clean
Verify the hashes of the sources:
makepkg --verifysource
Generate and save the source information into .SRCINFO:
makepkg --printsrcinfo > .SRCINFO
$```
Syncdeps and install
