Deb-pacman is a Bash script that emulates the functionality of Pacman (the package manager for Arch Linux and its variants). Using Deb-pacman, you can use the pacman commands in a Debian-based system the same way as you use them under Arch Linux to install, update, upgrade and remove packages. You can simply invoke pacman instead of apt command in your Ubuntu system. Deb-pacman emulates Arch Linux's Pacman package manager feel for Debian users who may prefer the style of pacman over apt. This can be helpful for those who got used to pacman in Arch Linux.

To install deb-pacman open the terminal and type:

cd ~/Desktop/
wget
sudo apt update
sudo apt install ./deb-pacman_2.0-0.deb
