The company I work for has a apt repo that both has some tools I like to install, but also maintains super new versions of certain libraries and kernels with configs that would break my laptop.
So I have the priority set low enough that if a package exists in any other repo it it preferred over my companies version.
Also sorry for the slow reply I forgot to check my messages 😄
How interesting. I would have assumed that was something inotify would give you.
Thanks for the response
