After some more user feedback, I decided to revert to stable rust because I can't expect everyone to build in a chroot.

paru -S --chroot lemonade-desktop would be the better solution but I doubt people use it like that, and I doubt everyone is using paru.

So with stable rust now the package needs about 45 seconds more to build. I left the commands for nightly in a comment in case anyone wants to have a nightly build workflow.

@androw thanks for reporting, I missed that (for obvious reasons). Tauri was cached in my cargo package list even when I removed cargo completely. Can you try if this is now working with the change I made? If not I will try your suggestion.

Edit: I made a third change to the threads number. Although I don't think that affects anything.

Thoughts: Sooner or later this package might end up in the official repository. Until then I'm trying to figure out how to publish a package that is usable for most people, because tauri needs a lot of CPU time for compilation. This is what I ended up with and it builds in about 1 minute 20 seconds on my PC.

cargo-tauri need to be added as make dependencie.

Hi, I'm sorry but I'm far away from my PC until 6 May and because of the tauri changes this package will stay outdated until I get back. I already had the changes ready but unfortunately I forgot to take them with me on the trip.

Bitgamma has updated the lemonade-server package that you can use until then! Sorry again for the trouble

I wanted to make some additional changes to improve the package (e.g create a systemd unit) but I'm feeling exhausted today so I've released 9.1.3 without these changes. When I find the time and energy I will do it.

Hi, I've updated the package for the latest version. I'm still trying to learn how to package better.

@vkxx I don't think cmake is needed here. But I added it on lemonade-server. I'm having some issues building lemonade-desktop in a clean chroot so please comment if it's still needed.

@th3raid0r I've followed a different approach, using arch linux electron to run it. So it's now available in /usr/bin/lemonade-desktop and also a desktop entry for Desktop environments. Please comment if it's not working for you.

vkxx commented on 2026-01-06 23:36 (UTC)

Please add cmake as dependency.

Hi @th3raid0r, thanks for trying the package. Sorry for taking so long to respond, I was trying to relax for a few days before the new year!

You are right that lemonade-server is not optional, but I bet it will be in the future. It doesn't make sense to have the backend and frontend depend on each other. I was a bit too quick to do it though, so I will change it.

I will fix the standard location also as soon as possible (probably tonight).
