## Alternatives system
|
||||
|
||||
When a package with conflicts is installed with `KISS_CHOICE=1`, the conflicting files will be added as "choices" to the alternatives system.
|
||||
|
||||
Afterwards, running `kiss a`/`kiss alternatives` will list all of the choices you are able to make. Each line of output with this command is also usable directly as input.
|
||||
|
||||
**NOTE** If a package has fewer than 10 conflicting files, the conflicting files will automatically be added to the alternatives system.
|
||||
|
||||
Example usage:
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
# List alternatives.
|
||||
-> kiss a
|
||||
-> Alternatives:
|
||||
ncurses /usr/bin/clear
|
||||
ncurses /usr/bin/reset
|
||||
|
||||
# Swap to ncurses 'clear'.
|
||||
-> kiss a ncurses /usr/bin/clear
|
||||
-> Swapping '/usr/bin/clear' from 'busybox' to 'ncurses'
|
||||
Password:
|
||||
|
||||
# New listing (busybox clear was swapped out).
|
||||
-> kiss a
|
||||
-> Alternatives:
|
||||
busybox /usr/bin/clear
|
||||
ncurses /usr/bin/reset
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Example usage (complex):
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
-> kiss i sbase
|
||||
# More lines...
|
||||
/var/db/kiss/installed/util-linux/manifest:/usr/bin/renice

|
||||

## Extending the package manager
|
||||
|
||||
The `contrib` directory contains a set of simple scripts to extend the package manager. These scripts can be installed through the `kiss-utils` package.
