# Orange
Why "Orange"? It's a fruit with a pip. The name doesn't matter as long as it doesn't conflict with another packages, and you can symlink it.
```
oscarg@ws01:~$ orange
orange: command not found
oscarg@ws01:~$ sudo apt install orange
[sudo] password for oscarg: 
Error: Unable to locate package orange
oscarg@ws01:~$
```
I do not see `orange` here, so `orange` it is.

## What's this?
A small stub thing for Debian-based Linux distributions that simply redirects your `pip` instruction to `apt`. Really, that's all it does.
Look, see? Here, it works, symlinked as `pip`.
```
oscarg@ws01:~$ pip requests
Preparing to install the following packages:
  - python3-requests

Would you like to proceed with apt (y/n): y

Ignore the fact I forgot to add instructions like `install`, `update`, or `remove`. I haven't used `pip` in a while, okay?
## Why?
```
× This environment is externally managed
╰─> To install Python packages system-wide, try apt install
    python3-xyz, where xyz is the package you are trying to
    install.
    
    If you wish to install a non-Debian-packaged Python package,
    create a virtual environment using python3 -m venv path/to/venv.
    Then use path/to/venv/bin/python and path/to/venv/bin/pip. Make
    sure you have python3-full installed.
    
    If you wish to install a non-Debian packaged Python application,
    it may be easiest to use pipx install xyz, which will manage a
    virtual environment for you. Make sure you have pipx installed.
    
    See /usr/share/doc/python3.13/README.venv for more information.

note: If you believe this is a mistake, please contact your Python installation or OS distribution provider. You can override this, at the risk of breaking your Python installation or OS, by passing --break-system-packages.
hint: See PEP 668 for the detailed specification.

## More importantly, why Rust?
I'm learning Rust.
## Installation instructions
I don't get why you'd want to install it, and I may forget to update that release link, but have at it, I suppose?
```
wget https://git.coolbea.nz/oscarg/orange/releases/download/0.1.0/orange
sudo cp orange /usr/local/bin
sudo ln -sf /usr/local/bin/orange /usr/local/bin/pip
```
