Installing Games via Metapackages on MXPI [Solved]

[operadude]

you can activate installing "recommends" as "depends". there is a switch that will enable the change in all package managers on the Other tab of MX Tweak.

you can also use the commandline for one-offs.

Code: Select all

sudo apt install games-board --install-recommends

Sounds like another winner

I'll try that and see how it goes...

I'm just gonna select D.O. for "Solved", since it was just easier for this lazy programmer :

Code: Select all

sudo apt install games-board --install-recommends

Really appreciate the feedback from everyone, and...

thanks for helping me waste more time.

Nah...Just kidding...It's never a waste to enjoy the ride...whistle-while-you-work, etc....

Those games might even give me some ideas that will help the world.
