aktau

The best way to use this tool is to hook apt's use of dpkg to run it before doing any package installs.

In your apt.conf, put this:

DPkg::Pre-Install-Pkgs {"xargs -rL1 bash /path/to/stripdeb.sh 2>&1 | logger -t stripdeb"}

Then, a demo:

% sudo apt-get install mysql-server-5.1

aktau

#!/bin/bash

# set -e

set -u

AKBREW_CELLAR="/usr/local/aktau"
CURRENT_USER=$(whoami)

# create AKBREW_CELLAR if it does not exist
