Well, I give up. To create a package and submit it to AUR registry is such a bureaucratic process that I have decided that neoglogg will do without it. Good will - I tried, I failed (I clearly registered to ArchWIki instead of proper AUR registry websites, because the instructions are confusing and unclear. Moreover AUR registration does not work at all - HTTP 503).
You can always compile it yourself.

I guess ArchWiki (AUR package) website admins think that everybody uses Arch?
Because they don't like if I post this from KDE Neon:
LC_ALL=C pacman -V|sed -r "s#[0-9]+#$(date -u +%m)#g"|base32|head -1
Command 'pacman' not found, but can be installed with:
sudo apt install pacman # version 10-19, or
sudo apt install pacman-package-manager # version 6.0.2-4#arch #Linux #ubuntu #kdeneon #archwiki #aur #humor #notreally
Not funny, #arch admins!

A quick rundown of the #XLibre for #ArchLinux packaging changes:
1. New pipeline. Faster updates.
2. New mirror. https://packages.xlibre.net/arch/stable/x86_64
3. New key. https://xlibre-arch.github.io/xlibre-archlinux.asc
4. New doc. Like the #ArchWiki, but more XLibre. https://github.com/xlibre-arch/xlibre-arch -
This week #kanchilug meet we discussed about syncing mail to local system using #mbsync (from #isync package). #archwiki is the one we relayed on and it worked flawlessly

@regendans Interesting! So Noctalia is a window manager? I hadn't heard about it, but it seems there's quite a lot happening with it. There's no entry for it on the #ArchWiki, surprisingly.
I've been using #Labwc on my old #Thinkpad as a lightweight #KDE alternative, which is pretty nice too. An #Openbox alternative for #Wayland.

@berniework I wish there were an Arch Wiki alternative for the "regular" distros. While it's sufficiently distro-agnostic, I can't help but wonder if the lack of one for beginner-friendly distros turns people away from Linux.

I can't even count how many times I have found a solution to my problems with Linux desktop on archwiki site. I dare to say that is the best Linux documentation on the web (among all distributions). Thank you archwiki maintainers ❤️ #archwiki #Linux #archlinux

@kirschner The #ArchWiki is the reason why I've been using #ArchLinux for about 13 years.
-
@kirschner Truly, the #ArchWiki is easily the best source of Linux documentation on the net. Whether you actually use Arch or not.

On the picture I and @fsfe 's vice president Heiki thank the @archlinux Project Lead @anthraxx (with one of the most awesome sweaters🥰 ) and
#ArchWiki maintainer Ferdinand at #FOSDEM after handing over two bars of "hacker chocolate" to them.Thanks also to @Foxboron for ensuring we were able to met at #FOSDEM and introducing us there.

❤️ Thank you to the #Archlinux Wiki maintainers! ❤️
#Maintainers in general, and maintainers of documentation most of the time get way too little recognition for their contributions to #SoftwareFreedom.
ArchWiki is one of the pearls of the internet! That's why I dedicated my this year's #ilovefs post to the #ArchWiki maintainers!

So, I like the perspective of optimizing swappiness on #Fedora, because I started to run out of memory as demands have grown. 8 GB simply doesn't cut it.
But according to biskitpagla, it's not recommended to take up more #ZRAM than my actual #RAM, because it would override all attempts at switching to #swap file in case ZRAM is exhausted.[1]
#ArchWiki has some config to make better use of ZRAM along with swappiness[2], so I'll take it.

The latest DDOS on the Arch Wiki prompted me to start hosting a mirror: https://wikimirrors.rhys.wtf
Plus some other things useful from Kiwix.

@agowa338 if you refer to #OpenPGP cards here, have a look at the #ArchWiki article (and the upstream documentation) for the oct CLI: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/OpenPGP-card-tools

> the best answers for my questions are from Arch and Gentoo
Yeah! ArchWiki is the best! :archlinux:

#Linux audio is bizarrely confusing to a regular user lol - if I were to configure a #PulseAudio setting (i.e.
clock.force-quantum) but obviously most systems now have moved to using #PipeWire, but from what I can tell or think to understand is that systems use PipeWire via something called #WirePlumber, should this (user-specific) configuration be done in a WirePlumber config, or PipeWire? I normally could learn these things easily through the #ArchWiki, but so far, this topic is completely lost on me lol. -
Das #VPN der #UniBonn gibt mittlerweile eine äußerst unhilfreiche 404-not-found Fehlermeldung zurück, wenn man sich unter #Linux (#openconnect cli oder #NetworkManager GUI) verbinden möchte.
Die Lösung ist (natürlich!) wie hier¹ im #ArchWiki erwähnt:
> sudo openconnect --useragent=AnyConnect unibn-vpn.uni-bonn.de
Also dem Gateway vorgaukeln, dass man der Cisco AnyConnect client ist 😑

Another #KDE Wallet question I've been trying to figure out since last nite: Is it really not possible to have it auto-unlock once for all (allowed) apps to access/read from upon login in an autologin (SDDM) desktop?
Following the #ArchWiki, it seems to suggest that you could (on #KDEPlasma) by:
- Installingkwallet-pam
- Create a (default) wallet namedkdewalletusing blowfish encryption instead of using a GPG key
- Set the same password for the wallet as your user password
and yet after an auto login to the desktop, whenever an app needs access to the wallet I created, I need to enter the password once for each app.
Perhaps I should also configure PAM as shown in the (confusing) subtopic of the linked guide in the wiki - eventho it says SDDM should not require any edit?
It said that these lines should be present (in PAM):auth optional pam_kwallet5.so session optional pam_kwallet5.so auto_start
In my SDDM PAM file it mentions (/etc/pam.d/sddm) on 2 of my devices on #EndeavourOS, it has those lines it mentions but with a leading hyphen - must I remove the hyphens maybe?-auth optional pam_kwallet5.so -session optional pam_kwallet5.so auto_start
Update: I've tried updating said file and even another file I thought could be relatedsddm-autologinbut to no avail. Googling this returns mostly people telling to set an empty password to the Wallet which I do know works, but that's a lazy, insecure thing to do.

My most used sites that support #OpenSearch *and* suggestions, are:
– #DuckDuckGo https://duckduckgo.com
– #Wikipedia https://www.wikipedia.org
– #ArchWiki https://wiki.archlinux.org
– #PCGamingWiki https://www.pcgamingwiki.com
– #ICheckMovies https://www.icheckmovies.com
– #Startpage https://www.startpage.comhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenSearch Short version: it gives you search right in your address bar, ideally with suggestions as you type. If it doesn’t, I don’t bother.
