-## Getting packages (arch)
-If you are on arch linux, you can easily install all packages needed to make these configs work (if I missed something please file an issue/PR)  
-Note that the (home made) `arch-requirements` file format supports comments with `#` you need the grep part of below commands  
-Helper scripts for this format will be available in another repository in the future (because I made a few creating this and will thus probably share)  
-### pacman
-Since the current list does not include any AUR packages. You can freely use `pacman` to sync all your packages. This can change in the future as I do not put much importance on keeping packages in main repos!!
-To accomplish an install of all requirements and sync repos just run:
-```sh
-pacman -Sy $(
-  sed -e 's/#.*//' -e 's/^[[:space:]]*//' -e 's/[[:space:]]*$//' \
-      arch-requirements \
-  | grep -v '^$'
-)
-```
-### yay
-Since `yay` is backwards compatible with `pacman`. The command needed is the exact same just using yay:
-```sh
-yay -Sy $(
-  sed -e 's/#.*//' -e 's/^[[:space:]]*//' -e 's/[[:space:]]*$//' \
-      arch-requirements \
-  | grep -v '^$'
-)
-```
