Fun #activities from last night:
Spending 4 hours trying to come up with a way to install #Alacritty on #Aurora #Linux without layering packages.
I ended up installing #rustup from #homebrew, using rustup to setup #cargo and then using cargo to install Alacritty. And I had to make .desktop file myself.
Only caveat - no way to include updating cargo and crates in "ujust update" (or I'm not smart enough). So after updating I have to manually run "rustup update" and "cargo install alacritty"
