I am working on a Linux native Mod Manager.
It's exciting to see someone else try to tackle the same problem as me. Approximately a year ago i also attempted to implement a mod manager for Linux, but the progress halted a bit when i got satisfied with how i could mod STALKER Anomaly (plus some other errands which ate up my time).

I attempted to create a generic mod manager
I've seen that case insensitivity is a big deal (which is a shame, but i guess that is due to different name handling on *tux/Windows. Luckily it isn't the worst problem to handle, and can be followed here

Okay how are you guys installing the total overhaul modlist?
I'm looking at portmod but now that I've got it set up finally, it looks like it doesn't actually install that list? It just installs individual mods!? From here is says to check out the basic usage guide, but that guide only shows how to install mods individually

OpenMW: Open-source TES3: Morrowind reimplementation
As far as I know, downloading and installing each mod is the main method for the modding-openmw lists.
There is a tool to try to automate game modlist installs called Wabbajack [1]. It was briefly discussed on the openmw forums [2]. I'm not sure if anyone has tried further to get the modding-openmw lists working with it. I have never used Wabbajack, so I don't know too much other than it exists. It still seems to have extra requirements according to the post, including a premium NexusMods account if you don't want to manually download everything.
Just as I typed all the above I saw a mention of portmod [3] in the modding-openmw guide about mod managers. Seems it's like Gentoo's portage, but for game mods. I see it has some meta packages for modding-openmw in their ebuild-like repository [4], but I don't think any of the big lists have been updated in awhile. Also, there again seems to be issues with it auto downloading from NexusMods mentioned in the issue tracker. Nevertheless, it looks to be an interesting project.

Has anybody gotten portmod to work on windows?
There's a similar issue which seems to be related to git bash/msys in some way: https://gitlab.com/portmod/portmod/-/issues/386

Is there a community for Linux Morrowind players...?
I use portmod and like it, but I wouldn't necessarily recommend it unless you are willing to learn (1) how to write your own Pybuild files or (2) use emerge.

I don't know if it can help your project, but there is a cross-platform CLI package manager for mods called portmod.

JFrog Detects Malicious PyPI Packages Stealing Credit Cards and Injecting Code
Portmod[0] is a package manager for game modifications (currently Morrowind and Doom), and it runs sandboxed Python scripts to install individual packages. So I think this is possible, but it's not a built-in feature of the runtime as is the case for deno.
