Bad news for the 3 or 4 people out there who didn't just use the package manager to install everything.
I've been forced to install from a website for an uncommon printer driver. It was from the official canon website tho.
I've had to compile a few things I've needed that weren't in my repos, like jackett, but I go to the project's git.
Look, I was new to ~~GNU+Linux~~ computers. But it seems I was lucky not to get redirected to that malicious repo.
