The website unfortunately is unmaintained and outdated.

As for your programs, I updated my database and kitty still exists and librewolf is in the universe repo.

I say! did you check for package on package search in website

it hasn't been updated for quiet a while.

to check weather exist, it better to do a
Code: [Select]
pacman -Ss package_name
or
Code: [Select]
pacman -Si package_name

if you want to check on browser, your only option is to go to a random mirror directory and search there. for example kitty is in https://mirrors.dotsrc.org/artix-linux/repos/galaxy/os/x86_64/kitty-0.26.5-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst

If you don't have Artix installed why ask at all or ask for, for example, AUR packages to be added to the Artix repos?

I'm missing something ?

No I don't.
My thought process. "If they don't have Artix installed why would they care what is or isn't in the Artix repo's ?"

But if you don't wish to enlighten me never mind.

seriously, if I use a package that isn't in the Artix repo's for the simple reason that it's not a very popular one (anybody reading this, use kaffeine?  Just one example), then rather than make requests to have it put there, not for the greater good put purely for personal gain, which puts more work on the maintainers/devs for very little if any benefit to the wider users of Artix, then I just add it from manually attached Arch repo's.  I get what i want, I don't put additional work on the Artix wizards (for whom I am very grateful for doing this whole Artix thing in the first place) and everyone is happy.     Whats the problem with doing that?   No need to create a problem for yourself where it doesn't actually exist.  Oh, and indeed try and make a contribution as and when you can in your own little way to give back a bit and maybe even add to it, hopefully.   That's how I see it anyway.

oh, and librewolf/kitty are there anyways...funny thread again.

Thanks for your time. but if you search in the repos on website packages..There it does not show kitty and librewolf. And Im about to install Artix now. I have my artix base openrc booted into USB yesterday but didn't got a chance to install yet. and yes it might be funny to you since you search through pacman. but i searched on the website here which doesn't show it at all.
Edit: Alacritty is a very popular terminal emulator. Not just me but others will use it as well. Alacritty and kitty both are most popular.

Whether this thread or one of your others it's been mentioned several times that https://packages.artixlinux.org is not up to date, possibly unmaintained(?).
Another place you can search for packages is https://gitea.artixlinux.org/. There you will find the actual build files. But if there's build files there's likely a package.

Go here https://gitea.artixlinux.org/packagesA/artix-mirrorlist/src/branch/master/trunk/mirrorlist
and there's the mirrorlist. Chose a mirror and, for example, go to this part of one of the urls https://mirrors.dotsrc.org/artix-linux/repos. Then you can drill down and see exactly which packages are in each repo.

In each repo you could also just download its database eg https://mirrors.dotsrc.org/artix-linux/repos/galaxy/os/x86_64/galaxy.db.tar.gz and look in that to see what's in the repo.

You could install Artix in a VM and then use pacman to query the database.
You could do similar by creating a chroot with https://gitea.artixlinux.org/artix/artix-bootstrap and then use pacman to query the database.

There are other semi / unofficial repo's as described here https://wiki.artixlinux.org/Main/Repositories. (I believe you'll find Librewolf in 'universe' ?)

So there's quite a few ways to find out which packages are in the Artix repo's without a full install of Artix.
The worst of them is searching packages.artixlinux.org . But you'd been told that.

In a perfect world packages.artixlinux.org would be up to date at all times. Maybe it's on a to do list. I have no clue ? But I imagine top priority is keeping the actual packages working and up to date.
