Pamac and Pacman difference on Manjaro
I know Pamac is the software installer with a GUI the thing with fancy buttons i can click. And i know Pacman is in the terminal to install software. For example:
sudo pacman -S lolcat sl cmatrix
But is the stuff that i download from Pamac pacman? So is pamac just a graphical interface to install pacman packages? Or is pamac and pacman something entirely different? In case why name it so similar.

And i now realised that i don't need the snapstore and that pamac also supports flatpak and snap.

Pamac is just a front-end for pacman.

If you had two completely seperate package managers for system packages everything would break. Package management is only effective when the package manager is aware of what is installed on the system.
