Frontear's Repository

A personally maintained Arch Linux repository for some of my most used packages.

This repository was made out of frustration with maintainers on the Arch User Repository providing broken packages, incomplete program files, too many or missing dependencies, and a broken build pipeline.

The main purpose of the PKGBUILDs here are to "just work", using as similar of a build pipeline as possible to what the sources recommend.

How to use?

Add this github repository as a custom package repository in your /etc/pacman.conf:

[frontear]
Server = https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Frontear/packages/main/x86_64

Then, import my gpg key BCB5CEFDE22282F5:

# pacman-key --add /path/to/frontear.gpg
# pacman-key --lsign-key BCB5CEFDE22282F5

Finally, run pacman -Syu to refresh local databases and install as you would a normal arch package.
