Just a note, we have a GitHub Pages site now: https://meowix-linux.github.io/
Hello @Nekosis, I've took a brief look, like in many others Arch based packages are:
armcord-bin
not needed for building calamares
)And Meowix-ISO is in some way an 'hostile fork' of Archiso https://github.com/Meowix-Linux/Meowix-ISO/commit/7abb6db321083aaf998db29d8b884366f77f00d7 which is rude to the original developers
Hi @FabioLolix,
Thank you for your reply. I have tried to address your concerns:
releng
. Archiso releng
is provided as a base to build your own Arch-based distribution on and I am not sure how that could be seen as a hostile fork. I am not aware of any other way to create an Arch-based Linux distribution. I do not intend to be hostile towards the Arch Linux community and instead encourage collaboration between the Meowix and the Arch Linux teams and communities.I hope these address your concerns. I await a further response. Thank you for maintaining the Distroware Archive.
calamares
and paru
, this is happening because PACKAGER=
field is not set in makepkg.conf
Import repository
for it instead of using New repository
Hi @FabioLolix,
PACKAGER
in my ~/.makepkg.conf
. Thank you for letting me know about that.releng
is included as well, but is in a subdirectory configs/releng, and is not a Git submodule. Thus, I am unsure about how I would go about taking changes from upstream. If you know how, please let me know as soon as possible. Until then, Meowix will have to maintain a "hostile fork" for the time being (although I believe the term you're looking for is "hard fork"). The way I originally got the releng
sources was via the package in the Arch Linux package repos (see https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Archiso#Prepare_a_custom_profile).
