@kleidis TOO many bashisms in this; Linutil is supposed to be posix compliant, also duplicate of #339

Removing the bashisms can be possible, but should I close this in favor of the other PR?

The way he implemented flathub setup, it isn't ideal Edit: Seems he clsoed it

You should go over the scripts with the "checkbashisms" package to ward out all of them.

Since I might be busy, I'm converting it to a draft

Had to remove the download script because removing all bashisms while keeping the TUI proved to be challenging Looks like this needs to be tackled directly with the rust code, which I am not willing to do RN

Not to mention the flathub API completely stopped working today for whatever reason while it was working fine yesterday, so it really doesn't seem like a good way of fetching flathub

@nnyyxxxx Mind rechecking?

[ChrisTitusTech]

Sorry for the inconvenience. We had a massive restructure of the codebase to improve future development. Because of this can you update your PR to the new structure. Thank you for your assistance and contribution.

As discussed on https://github.com/ChrisTitusTech/linutil/pull/362 , uninstall or revert scripts should not be separate entries

Once the revert_tweaks script is in place, i'll re-add the uninstall part of the script back For now, it will be removed
