Thanks for the feedback, I'm not sure if we can move this just yet to the Stable repo as it requires a newer version of psutil, I think that will cause issues for other things in the Stable repo.
So right now, this is in the MX Test Repo more for dependencies than stability. But I do appreciate the testing!

@SwampRabbit,
Your comment about the version mismatch of psutil reminds me of something I wanted to do a while ago: integrate the Nix package manager into MX. That would enable apps to have their own versions of libraries without all the overhead of flatpak, et al. At the time I was considering this, though, Nix wasn't very user friendly - no good UI tools for instance. But, is Nix on any MX dev's radar as a potential solution for all of the app requests that must be denied due to version dependencies?

bpytop 1.0.62 is now in the MX Test Repo. Still includes our menu entry.

I don't know about anyone else, but I am not looking at it. Sorry I missed your post, but this isn't thread isn't the place for such questions

bpytop 1.0.68 is now in the Test Repo for MX-19

As always please do not enable any repos to install this. You should be able to find and install it using the MX Test Repo tab in MX Package Installer.
