As with all things arch based: void better

And strict mode (set -e) is off

I use an fzf based script that queries for updates and lets me choose what to install.

If you use xbps, or are just curious:

::: xu #!/bin/env sh

self=“$(basename “$0”)”

error() { printf ‘%s:’ “$self” >&2 # shellcheck disable=SC2068 printf ’ %s’ $@ >&2 printf ‘\n’ >&2 }

fatal() { error “$@” exit 1 }

if [ -x “$(command -v sk)” ]; then finder=sk elif [ -x “$(command -v fzf)” ]; then finder=fzf else echo “neither fzf or sk are installed” >&2 exit 1 fi

tmp=“$(mktemp)” || fatal “couldn’t source bindings” grep ‘^export’ “$DOTFILES/.zshenv” | grep -E ‘FZF|SKIM’ >“$tmp” . “$tmp” rm “$tmp”

shellcheck disable=SC2046

choices=“$(xbps-install -nSu | cut -f1 -d’ ’ | sed ‘s/-[^-]*$//g’ | $finder | tr ‘\n’ ’ ')”

[ -n “$choices” ] || exit

guard=pkexec command -v “$guard” >/dev/null 2>/dev/null || guard=sudo

shellcheck disable=SC2086

while ! $guard xbps-install -Syu $choices; do :; done

Can anybody break this one down for an idiot like me?
