### Pacman Hook
When using [Arch Linux](/wiki/linux/arch-linux.md) and its package managers
[Pacman and Yay](/wiki/linux/package_manager.md#arch-linux-pacman-and-yay) a hook can be set that
automatically updates the discord installation to setup betterdiscord using betterdiscordctl.
The following is a [pacman hook](/wiki/linux/package_manager.md#hooks) that can be used to update
betterdiscord automatically.
Make sure to change the three occurences of `<username>` to the name of the user to install
betterdiscord for.
```sh
