Debug

Known issues

breakingBackend names changed in 1.5: 'brew' replaces 'homebrew', 'apt' replaces 'apt-get'. Old names raise ValueError.

fix

Use new backend names: 'brew', 'apt', 'dnf', 'yum', 'pacman', 'choco'.

affects: >=1.5

gotchainstall() requires root permissions on Linux/macOS unless using --user flag. May fail silently with non-root.

fix

Run Python with sudo or set pm.security_context='user' for per-user installs.

affects: all

deprecatedPackageManager.install() parameter 'force' is deprecated since 1.9. Use 'force_reinstall' instead.

fix

Replace 'force' with 'force_reinstall' in function call.

affects: >=1.9,<2.0
