How else would you install something that doesn’t happen to be in your favorite package manager?
@xigoi Are you actually trying to get malware into your computer? Don't install **random** shiny new things without maximum skepticism. Period. Just let some other fools "test" the minefield for you. Or do a proper inspection. Executing foreign code just because it had "GPT" in the name... and acting like there was no other option... yuck!
