Its package history is short, but it fits a recognizable CLI culture niche: a package-manager joke that is still distributed as a real executable. ### Projektgeschichte The GitHub repository was created in 2025. The README describes a terminal program that simulates installing things, includes an asciinema demo, and documents binary, source, and Docker usage. Tagged releases began with early 0.x versions and reached v0.5.0 in 2025. The README exposes small controls for selecting or excluding simulated installation stages, keeping the joke interactive rather than a static message. ### Adoptionsgeschichte The package crossed from a GitHub novelty into package-manager distribution. The input metadata records Homebrew, Nix, and Winget entries, and Homebrew packages the v0.5.0 source archive. ### Wie es verwendet wird Users either run the downloaded binary, run it from source with Cargo, or run it in Docker. The command accepts optional stage names and an exclusion flag, then prints simulated installation progress until interrupted or completed. ### Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren For package nerds, install-nothing is mostly a meta-package joke: a real formula whose purpose is to parody installer progress, bootstrap rituals, and the emotional texture of watching dependencies install. Its significance is in the contradiction between function and packaging. The package has install instructions, releases, binaries, Docker support, and package-manager entries for a tool whose documented job is to do no real installation work. ### Zeitleiste - 2025: GitHub repository created. - 2025: v0.3.0, v0.4.x, and v0.5.0 tags appear. - 2025: Homebrew packages v0.5.0 from the GitHub source archive. ### Related projects - install-nothing is related more to terminal demos, installer parodies, Rust CLIs, Cargo-built novelty tools, Homebrew joke packages, Nix packaging, and Winget distribution than to a functional dependency manager. ### Quellen - - - - ## Sicherheitshinweise narrow executable package without higher-risk signals. - **Geiger-Risiko:** grün / niedrig - narrow executable package without higher-risk signals ## Details aus der Quelldatenbank - **Source Database:** Homebrew formula API - **Tap:** homebrew/core - **Full Name:** install-nothing - **Version Scheme:** 0 - **Revision:** 0 - **Head Version:** HEAD - **Bottle Stable Root URL:** - **Deprecated:** no - **Disabled:** no - **Keg Only:** no - **URL Keys:** head, stable ## Andere Paketmanager-Einträge - Nix - install-nothing: normalized package name match | nixpkgs package indexes: pkgs/by-name/in/install-nothing/package.nix from https://api.github.com/repos/NixOS/nixpkgs/git/trees/master?recursive=1 - winget - buyukakyuz.install-nothing: normalized package name match | Windows Package Manager source index: buyukakyuz.install-nothing from https://cdn.winget.microsoft.com/cache/source.msix ## Verwandte Links - [Source-control packages](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/source-control-tools/) - Belongs to a source-control command family. - [Terminal utility packages](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/terminal-utilities/) - Matched terminal and command-line workflow metadata. - [Text processing packages](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/text-processing-tools/) - Matched text, document, or structured-data processing metadata. - [Developer build packages](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/developer-build-tools/) - Matched build, compiler, generator, or developer workflow metadata. - [rust](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/brew/rust/) - Build dependency declared by Homebrew. - [chars](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/brew/chars/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, developer-tools, rust, terminal. - [code-minimap](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/brew/code-minimap/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, developer-tools, rust, terminal. - [genact](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/brew/genact/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, developer-tools, rust, terminal. - [gitu](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/brew/gitu/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, developer-tools, rust, terminal. - [gitui](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/brew/gitui/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, developer-tools, rust, terminal. - [halp](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/brew/halp/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, developer-tools, rust, terminal. - [moor](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/brew/moor/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, developer-tools, rust, terminal. - [msedit](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/brew/msedit/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, developer-tools, rust, terminal. - [install-peerdeps](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/brew/install-peerdeps/) - Package names and metadata indicate a similar tool family.
