Oh you just want to install this one package here? Ok but let’s update 60 other packages first. Don’t worry, it will only take about one minute. Per package.
When I was new to linux and got a raspberry pi 1. I was following some random guide to put retroarch on the pi. I did not know what I was doing, but it took at least 24 hours if not more.
Years later I realized that the guide had me compiling it from source instead of just installing a precompiled package.
Try installing something from homebrew.

Bruh have fun on x86_64 since you have to compile them all (at least I had to, I might have broken something)
I installed Mono on my M1 MBP last year and it took like four hours to compile 💀

Real talk I’ve been using this I’ve mashed together:
update_brew() { bold=$(tput bold); normal=$(tput sgr0); brew --version && echo "${bold} > brew update${normal}" && brew update && echo "${bold} > brew upgrade${normal}" && brew upgrade && echo "${bold} > brew autoremove${normal}" && brew autoremove && echo "${bold} > brew cleanup${normal}" && brew cleanup && echo "${bold} > brew doctor${normal}" && brew doctor; }
Try Nix instead of Homebrew.
