Some basic instructions for using this package from the packager's perspective:
This package contains some applications like Explorer and Notepad that can be just open from application list. You can check what is added in package file list after installing.
Hello, I'm very new to Arch and I wanted to get this on my Arch distro, but I only get XP Window borders, the rest is missing, what do I have to do? Thank you and sorry for bothering.
@rozniak Thanks, updated :)
@SelfRef fyi new deps: sqlite, python-packaging :)
@SelfRef This CMakeLists file lists all the current known arch names (aka ones I know about) https://github.com/rozniak/xfce-winxp-tc/blob/master/packaging/cmake-inc/packaging/CMakeLists.txt#L22
BTW if you want to use your own lists of targets, buildall.sh
has a switch for doing that, you can do buildall.sh -c ~/mytargets
for instance. It should then use ~/mytargets
instead of packaging/targets
@rozniak Yeah, any package can support multiple architectures. I'll add aarch64
if you already tested it. I'll check how it works on my RPi 4 as well.
Now I wonder if more architectures could be supported. Arch Linux ARM also supports armv7h
and Arch Linux 32 supports (with GUI) i686
and pentium4
. The last one I have installed on one of my machines.
In the meantime, I will think about splitting the package even more into themes (with any
arch) and compiled components (apps/panel). Also, splitting packaging/targets
file into two (arch dependent/independent) would help with that. There's no reason the themes/cursors/icons couldn't be used on every architecture.
@SelfRef Is it possible to add aarch64
to the PKGBUILD
? I have hopefully just resolved an issue upstream that the build was only handling armv8
(uname on Debian), it now also checks aarch64
(uname on Arch Linux) -- not much difference other than ARM users get '64-Bit Edition' banners instead of 'Professional x64 Edition'. :p
@DippyTheFoxDerg The only one that should be missing is mspaint, because it is not included in the build targets (as it is UI only atm - no functionality).
yes @rozniak , thats what i mean, i will try to run wintc-taskband if i find it, btw im also missing the windows-xp like programs, e.g ms paint, run, winver, etc, or is that also in wintc-taskband? i am new to arch soo bare with me lol
