Lilith: Devil's Package Manager

Lilith is a self-contained package manager for regular users without root privileges, inspired by FreeBSD's package system. It allows you to install, update, and remove packages in your home directory on devil servers (MyDevil.net, Small.pl, hostUNO.com, Ct8.pl and Serv00.com).

Features

  • Installs packages in ~/.lilith (no root required), ideal for devil server!
  • Downloads and extracts FreeBSD packages
  • Handles dependencies
  • Keeps track of installed packages
  • Colored output for info, success, warnings, and errors

Installation

  1. Global Helpers Setup

    Before proceeding, please follow the instructions in the Getting Started section of the main README.md to install helpers.

  2. Add Lilith Paths

    cat <<'EOF' >> ~/.bash_profile
# lilith paths
export PATH="$HOME/.lilith/bin:$HOME/.lilith/sbin:$PATH"
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="$HOME/.lilith/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH"
export MANPATH="$HOME/.lilith/share/man:$MANPATH"
export C_INCLUDE_PATH="$HOME/.lilith/include:$C_INCLUDE_PATH"
export CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH="$HOME/.lilith/include:$CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH"
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH="$HOME/.lilith/lib/pkgconfig:$HOME/.lilith/libdata/pkgconfig:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH"
EOF
source ~/.bash_profile

Note: Lilith automatically creates symlinks in ~/.lilith/lib/ for any shared libraries found in subdirectories, so you only need the simple LD_LIBRARY_PATH setup above.

  1. Run Lilith Commands 
    lilith <command> [options] <package_name>

Commands

    help                          Show this help message

How It Works

  • Packages are downloaded from the FreeBSD repository based on your system's ABI
  • Extracted files are placed in ~/.lilith directories (bin, lib, etc.)
  • Metadata and manifests are stored for tracking and removal

Troubleshooting

  • If you see errors about missing tools, install them using your system's package manager
  • For metadata issues, run lilith update-metadata
