Autonomix

A Linux package manager for GitHub releases. Similar to Obtainium for Android.

Features

• 📦 Track GitHub releases from any repository
• 🔄 Check for updates with one click
• ⬇️ Install packages directly (.deb, .rpm, AppImage, Flatpak, Snap)
• 🔔 Self-updates included - Autonomix tracks its own releases
• 🎨 Modern GTK4/libadwaita interface

Installation

From Release

Download the latest .deb or .rpm package from the Releases page.

Debian/Ubuntu

sudo dpkg -i autonomix_*.deb
sudo apt-get install -f  # Fix any dependency issues

Fedora/RHEL

sudo dnf install autonomix-*.rpm

From Source

Requirements:

• Rust 1.70+
• GTK4 development libraries
• libadwaita development libraries

# Install dependencies (Debian/Ubuntu)
sudo apt install libgtk-4-dev libadwaita-1-dev libgraphene-1.0-dev

# Install dependencies (Fedora)
sudo dnf install gtk4-devel libadwaita-devel graphene-devel

# Build and install
cargo build --release
sudo cp target/release/autonomix /usr/local/bin/

Usage

1. Click the + button to add a GitHub repository
2. Enter the repository URL (e.g., github.com/owner/repo or just owner/repo)
3. Click Add
4. Click Install to install the latest release
5. Click the Refresh button to check for updates

Supported Package Types

• .deb - Debian/Ubuntu packages (installed via dpkg)
• .rpm - Fedora/RHEL packages (installed via dnf or rpm)
• .AppImage - Portable applications (stored in ~/.local/share/autonomix/appimages)
• .flatpak - Flatpak bundles (installed to user)
• .snap - Snap packages

How It Works

Autonomix uses the GitHub API to fetch release information. When you install a package:

1. The latest release is fetched from GitHub
2. The best matching asset is selected based on your system (architecture, package format)
3. The asset is downloaded to a temporary location
4. For system packages (.deb, .rpm, .snap), pkexec is used to install with elevated privileges
5. For user packages (AppImage, Flatpak), no elevation is needed
