gollark: Sure.
gollark: I love how the old wiki talks about how they "deprecated" some features, but actually they just got entirely removed, which is not at all what "deprecate" means.
gollark: Randomly removing features is a problem, and never-updated dependencies is a problem too.
gollark: Also, a programmatic API would be neat.
gollark: Some package manager features I think are important:- working update, without overwriting edited config files or something- customizable repos- semantic versioning for dependencies
