In the commit 0f74569af0 ("dependencies:
switch arch, debian, fedora35, ubuntu2004 to packagekit"), the
Trisquel script was converted to use packagekit to then be able to
unify the dependency management between several distributions.
However GNU Boot doesn't build directly on Parabola, and the build is
completely untested on Fedora and Void, so the other scripts are less
important. In contrast building GNU Boot is regularely tested on
PureOS 10 (byzantium) and Trisquel 11 (aramo).
Since the Guix debootstrap package can be used to safely create
chroots of PureOS and Trisquel, it may be possible to use that to
build GNU Boot on any distributions.
However packagekit requires a daemon to work:
# pkcon install guix
Failed to contact PackageKit: Could not connect:
No such file or directory
And in turn the /usr/libexec/packagekitd daemon requires dbus as shown
by the /lib/systemd/system/packagekit.service file:
[Unit]
Description=PackageKit Daemon
# PK doesn't know how to do anything on ostree-managed systems;
# currently the design is to have dedicated daemons like
# eos-updater and rpm-ostree, and gnome-software talks to those.
ConditionPathExists=!/run/ostree-booted
Wants=network-online.target
[Service]
Type=dbus
BusName=org.freedesktop.PackageKit
User=root
ExecStart=/usr/libexec/packagekitd
So reverting back to apt seems a safe choice for now.

Without that fix, 'sudo resources/dependencies/pureos-10' results in
the following issue:
Finished [=========================]
Command failed: Expected package name, actually got file.
Try using 'pkcon install-local libtool' instead.
And with this patch the command above works fine:

Without that fix, 'make release' fails with the following error:

This happens because during releases we also ship a tarball of the
website, and the commit 388c0ef3d0
("website: add history page of the GNU Boot git repositories.")
started using dot without also adding the graphviz dependency in the
dependencies for building releases.

We can't require contributors to install Debian as it has freedom
issues[1] but for contributors, installing PureOS is easier since
it's at least FSDG compliant[2]. So it makes sense to show that
PureOS is the primary target here.
This is also reflected in the reality as the current GNU Boot
maintainers already installed PureOS 10 inside virtual machines
and/or containers to test this script and build the GNU Boot 0.1
RC1 release.
