aconfmgr is a shell-based configuration manager for Arch Linux that tracks installed packages and changes to /etc configuration files as extensible shell scripts. It can save, restore, and audit a system's configuration, helping users rebuild or maintain lean systems.
Use cases
- restore my arch linux system configuration on a new machine
- track changes to /etc config files
- find obsolete packages on arch linux
- back up list of installed packages including AUR
- detect unwanted configuration drift on my system
- scriptable alternative to ansible for arch
When to choose
- you run Arch Linux and want declarative-ish tracking of packages and /etc
- you need to reproduce a system setup quickly after reinstall or on new hardware
- you prefer plain shell scripts over Puppet/Ansible/NixOS complexity
When to avoid
- you are not on Arch Linux or an Arch-based distribution
- you need full infrastructure orchestration across many machines
- you want a declarative immutable system like NixOS
