minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink7•20 days agoI’d recommend avoiding aliases that conflict with regular commands, and there’s a standard Linux command called install. https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man1/install.1.html If you’re going to always pass the -y flag then I’d add --no-install-recommends too.
