So, essentially, really poorly written malware? Given the number of assumptions it makes without any sort of robustness around system configuration it’s about as good as any first-pass bash script.
It’d be a stretch to call it malware, it’s probably an outright fabrication to call it a virus.
I know your shitposting, but I used to run into shit like this all the time back when I used to try to run Loki software games on Linux back in the day. Within 6 months all the games I had were un-fucking-runnable.
It’s still a thing now depending how crazy you want to get with your system (let’s pretend you don’t run Linux on an x86 system for example - good luck lol)

So you’re saying it’s about as robust as a typical Linux application then?
“It works on my machine”
He said the thing!
Packagers job to make it fit their distro, innit?
As a package maintainer, it’s a lot of fun sometimes!
I bet, both ironically and genuinely, depending on the cade. Flatpak must feel like a godsend to a lot of people haha
I’ve actually never used flatpak, I still prefer distro-specific package managers
Flatpak is really nice imo. You can have stable distro with up-to-date apps. And sandboxing for proprietary stuff, which is really nice.
Username checks out
I think it was a fun post about what we go through sometimes just to get X or Y working. It was quite clever.
This is… clearly a meme…
I wasn’t sure about it either. There’s security researchers out there who might genuinely want to get a virus to run in a VM.
But yeah, the
cmalw-lib-2.0gives it away…Yeah, nobody uses
cmalw-lib-2.0Its deprecated, now we use
