Numerous Announcements For Deepin And Budgie

---

Hi,

@Keegan : I’m in the process of changing all this mess (hopefully with something easier to maintain). I merged antergos-desktop and antergos-gsettings into antergos-desktop-settings

But there is still some configuration that is done by Cnchi (and it also copies some files from the ISO). All this should also be moved to antergos-desktop-settings and have all settings in just one place once and for all.

Thank you so much for that. It surely was getting rather confusing.

What type of configuration are you thinking of here? Other than gsettings of course…

Basically /etc/skel files (that end in the new user’s home folder). Cnchi copies them directly from the ISO, which I think it’s a wrong decision. All this setup should be in a package.

Hmmm… in that case, i may have to ask you to copy my current skel folder in my repo of Antergos-Deepin on Github. Here’s the link to it:
https://github.com/keeganmilsten/Antergos-Community-Editions/tree/testing/configs/deepin/root-image/etc/skel

If you can, please keep ALL of my configs in there, without changing them at all, even if they seem rather strange. All of my changes serve a purpose for my ISO.

Thank you!

And if it’s not too much to ask, could I please have some permissions to this new package? (antergos-desktop-settings that is ;)). Because the skel folder is where I make the majority of my changes and tweaks to my ISO. I know I could create a pull request, but sometimes I make over 10 changes in as little as 20 minutes, and then at other times none for a day or two! Without the ability to change it directly, the development of Antergos-Deepin will slow to an absolute crawl and any work I do will be completely reliant on you. And while that would usually be fine with me, I know that you actually have a life too and would rather not be online at your repo on Github 24/7 just to click the “Merge” button for my 25 commit of the day (I can really go through a lot of “commits”, mostly because the changes I make are generally one liners each.

Thank you.

i like the idea of having the /etc/skel in the destination system (that doesn’t affect what you’re sayiong here) cause if i want to create a new user with antergos default configs later on, the new user will use the /etc/skel to the new user…
So what do you think about copying the config files at /etc/skel also and not only to /home?
Not sure if i was clear enough…

I’m afraid I don’t quite understand… could you elaborate?

Thanks.

@Keegan ok
Under Antergos, after the system is installed the folder /etc/skel is very empty, without most of antergos config files for the choosen desktop. I like the folder functionality as a “backup folder” for all those configs.

Example1: I installed Antergos Openbox, changed some configs and hey!, i destroyed the very nice config that antergos devs made. How can i restore? Only browsing the github site and dig untill i find what i want. BUT if those folders where saved at /etc/skel? much easier and is also default for all linux distros.

Example2: I installed Antergos Openbox and created a new user and hey! Why is not antergos configs here? because /etc/skel is very empty, so new users only have basic files to the new /home folder…

Basically that…

Ah… I understand what you mean now. Hopefully @karasu shows up soon so that he doesn’t get behind on all our brainstorming.

Thanks!

@karasu, I don’t mean to bug or nag you, but what do you think about my question, 5 posts back? I’m kind of stuck in suspense right now ;).

Thanks!

Hi @Keegan

I’m in a rush right now. I’ll answer you through the chat.

Thank you.

WHat’s about the new release?

I have other question about this version: it includes this plugin?
