Restore old Makefile for system-wide installation

[cryzed]

Would you consider restoring the old Makefiles (merging and adapting them for this project) that used to exist in the old repository locations:

• https://github.com/varlesh/Arc-KDE
• https://github.com/varlesh/Arc-Dark-KDE

for an easy system-wide installation? Currently I only see an option to install and remove it from the user's home.

Makefile is not supported anymore. I added the install-arc-kde-root.sh, not sure that all paths are correct, can you tested it?

remove

wget -qO- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/PapirusDevelopmentTeam/arc-kde/master/remove-arc-kde.sh | sh

install

wget -qO- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/PapirusDevelopmentTeam/arc-kde/master/install-arc-kde-root.sh | sh

install on root directory not needed, because all worked fine from home and this more safe! root directory need for maintainers only - Papirus not have maintainers now, all third-party repos discontinued and not supported!

[varlesh]

Ouh i'm forgot sudo/kdesudo... Ok root-install need

Most distributions will attempt to turn this into a package installable by package manager, for example pacman/makepkg. To easily create such a package one needs to be able to specify the DESTDIR, which is possible using a Makefile. I don't expect anyone to actually run the install script as a root, I'd much rather rely on my package manager's mechanics.

We not have maintainers and support only git repo. Sorry, but now create package it's not our problem. All install paths available on scripts

I understand, thanks for creating Arc KDE.

@cryzed You can open new PR and add new universal makefile if you needed

[cryzed]

I would if I was familiar at all with creating them. I know how to use them but not create them, Makefiles are usually used for C/C++ projects which I don't personally use at all unfortunately.

For now someone has already taken up the task of creating an easily installable package for Arch Linux here.

[varlesh]

Sorry, i'm too :) I can only draw

[varlesh]

If you fear run install script for root - you can use script for home, it's safe.

[varlesh]

Or install manual - clone repo, check files and copy folders

[cryzed]

No worries, I'm using this, which creates a package that is completely installable and removable system-wide. Thanks for Arc KDE :)!
