* Fedora / Red Hat / CentOS: `sudo yum install git python3 python3-pip`
* Arch / Manjaro: `sudo pacman -S git python python-pip python-setuptools libffi`
Install the global CLI to bootstrap your system:
`python3 -m pip install --user qmk` (on Arch-based distros you can also try the `qmk` package from AUR (**note**: it's maintained by a community member): `yay -S qmk`)
`python3 -m pip install --user qmk` (on Arch-based distros you can also try the `qmk` package from AUR (**note**: it's maintained by a community member): `yay -S qmk`)
### FreeBSD
You will need to install Git and Python. It's possible that you already have both, but if not, run the following commands to install them:
pkg install git python3
Make sure that `$HOME/.local/bin` is added to your `$PATH` so that locally install Python packages are available.
Once installed, you can install QMK CLI:
python3 -m pip install --user qmk

Sadly, Ubuntu reitroduced this bug and is [yet to fix it](https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bash/+bug/1588562).
Luckily, the fix is easy. Run this as your user: `echo "PATH=$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH" >> $HOME/.bashrc && source $HOME/.bashrc`
?>**Note on FreeBSD**:
It is suggested to run `qmk setup` as a non-`root` user to start with, but this will likely identify packages that need to be installed to your
base system using `pkg`. However the installation will probably fail when run as an unprivileged user.
To manually install the base dependencies, run `./util/qmk_install.sh` either as `root`, or with `sudo`.
Once that completes, re-run `qmk setup` to complete the setup and checks.
?> If you already know [how to use GitHub](getting_started_github.md), we recommend that you create your own fork and use `qmk setup <github_username>/qmk_firmware` to clone your personal fork. If you don't know what that means you can safely ignore this message.
