Would it be possible to have debs of this wmaker? I've tried to compile it with no success.

roblillack commented 1 year ago

Hey Alberto, I currently do not build binary packages for this. Please try the following steps to build from source:

  1. sudo apt build-dep wmaker
  2. ./autogen.sh
  3. ./configure.sh
  4. make
  5. sudo make install

and you should have an executable in /usr/local/bin/wmaker

Thanks. This is the error I have running "./autogen.sh"

However, I still managed to compile by downloading the original repo and copying/replacing your repo /src files into it.

It would be nice if roblillack proposes a patch to the official wmaker team, the resizing of the icons makes everything much more pleasing to the eye.
