I am trying to build my own applet, but I am getting a dependency error. To resolve it I need to get eopkg. But how do I install it, apt won't work.

From what research I've done on this (and there's not much out there to look at in terms of eopkg resources that are not Solus OS-centric), eopkg seems to be a Solus OS specific package manager. It does not work with Debian style .deb packages, nor does it work with RHEL-style .rpm packages, and is not available in Ubuntu.

There does not seem to be any specific upstream project that I can find which has eopkg, and it seems to be Solus OS-specific. I do not believe that you can install eopkg in Ubuntu (and I can't say if it even compiles properly in an Ubuntu environment, because the source code doesn't seem to be published on GitHub anywhere), so if your application / applet is dependent on eopkg, then it's likely a Solus OS-only application/applet and will not work with Ubuntu.
