Don't even get me started on when the main command for a package is something like "fastfuck" and you dont have it so you type sudo apt install fastfuck and its not called that in the fucking debian repo! So you have to start doing apt search package to find it. Until finally you realize the package is called "fuckfast" or something else slightly different.
Libfoobar, foobarlib, foobar-lib, foobar is actually is in barfoo-dev
I think reading that gave me a stroke
I do like when some operating systems have an autocorrect that asks you if you want to install fuckfast. Even better if they let you just type Y/N to install it immediately.
My ideal would be as soon as you type the command that doesn't exist it says, "Oh, that command is from 1.[package], 2.[package], and 3.[package] but you don't have them. Do you want to install them now? [1, 2, 3 to select which, no for none, or all for all.]"
