My package contains both 32-bits and 64-bits installer and weighs twice the size: any way to avoid such waste?
There are a couple on the Chocolatey Community Chocolatey Packages repository, but I'm not sure which ones off the top of my head.
-
What is the lead time for CVE fixes making it into choco?
For https://github.com/chocolatey-community/chocolatey-packages/issues/2232 the issue is not that python 3.11 is not available but that earlier versions with security patches for recent a CVEs are not. So the latest version of 3.9 from the chocolately community repo at the time of writing is 3.9.13. 3.9.16 has the fix.

(pending) chocolatey-community/chocolatey-packages #2226 (kubescape) Add Kubescape package
- Does "choco upgrade <packagename>" actually uninstall the previous version?

Do NOT use Oracle Cloud Always Free Tier.
Remember when the VirtualBox license still allowed commercial use, as long as you installed it yourself manually? Pepperidge Farm remembers.

Recently installed Chocolatey (have a few small complaints)
For a great example of community involvement, see the Chocolatey Community Chocolatey Packages repository which has 340 packages and 617M downloads of those packages.

Ask HN: Best books on managing software complexity?
Meh...
Here is the exact case you mention, just WAY worst. This is something I did for chocolatey community:
https://gist.github.com/choco-bot/a14b1e5bfaf70839b338eb1ab7...
This page checks ~250 web sites for updates on various software. Today it has 6 errors and usually never much more. On my own location I keep ~60 packages and I get errors I tackle errors maybe once a year.
Check out the settings which make it so robust:

Is there a git repository for Chocolatey{Install,Uninstall}.ps1 files?
This is not the right place to ask about package updates. If there is an issue with the freecad package, I would suggest that you raise an issue here: https://github.com/chocolatey-community/chocolatey-coreteampackages/issues

FWIW I got it working on Windows 10 19041.685, but had to add $env:APPDATA\Python\Python39\Scripts to my user $PATH. The default path from Chocolatey Python 3.9 is at C:\Python39\Scripts\

My CNCF LFX Mentorship Spring 2023 Project at Kubescape
(merged) ScoopInstaller/Main #4757 kubescape: Update url and binary naming
- I built a cross-platform GUI management tool for LiteDB using AvaloniaUI
- Stupid Fast Scoop Search v1.0
- The scoop on Windows running Perl
-
In support of single binary executable packages
As I see it, part of the drive behind tools like Scoop is to overcome the limitations of the binary-shipping strategy common to Windows developers. They are successful at this, I agree, but only partially successful. They come from the tradition of programs like Ninite, which were explicitly built as ways to make the binary approach suck less than it did before.
I see the success of these programs as essentially stemming from the insertion of user interests in the form of a maintainer-like process. Sure, they're still working with the binaries, but the actual process of installing and managing these binaries is controlled by users, for users: https://github.com/ScoopInstaller/Main/tree/master/bucket
This means that you get moderation and in many cases modification to the behavior of the program. In a freeware environment like Windows that's full of shitware, at the very least you can in many cases strip out the ads. That's absolutely not nothing, but at the end of the day it comes from a group of user-maintainers stepping up and saying to developers that no, you cannot simply do whatever you want on my system with your software. That's ... sort of the whole point of a software distribution, in the Linux world!
When I want the latest version of a CLI tool on Linux, I simply `pacman -S package`. That's it; one command. I don't see how it could be any simpler or better than that, and on top of that I'm getting the benefits of moderation and integration with the rest of my system. Perhaps you are emphasizing latest version here, and hinting that you don't get that on Linux distros? That depends entirely on the distro; a software distribution is (roughly) a collection of user interests. An Arch user wants (and gets) the latest versions of all upstream software. A Debian user does not want this or see constant updating to the latest version as an advantage, so that's not what they get.
