<h1>spDE</h1>
|
||
|
|
<p>spDE is a Gentoo metapackage which installs all software I use on my computers. It comes with USE flags so you can disable what you don't need/use. After installing this package you should end up with a system fairly close to mine. It can be compared to a post install script like LARBS but cleaner because it uses your existing package manager to install the system.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>It is a "sequel" to the now dead original spDE project, which like LARBS was a post-install script which installs my configuration files and packages. Problem with that approach is that it is a lot of work to maintain and there are way too many points of failure. Not to mention it is hard to reverse the process.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>I started creating this ebuild after all my builds of software got ebuilds to save time setting up a Gentoo system. It also takes less work to maintain an ebuild because all you need to do is add the programs to the DEPEND variable.</p>
|

|
|
<h2>What packages does spDE install?</h2>
|
||
|
|
<p>Read the <code>DEPEND</code> variable in <a href="https://codeberg.org/speedie/speedie-overlay/raw/commit/fe101174cfb5d47c8cb331820f68cd291fe1e638/x11-misc/spde/spde-9999.ebuild">the spDE ebuild.</a></p>
|
||
|
|
<h2>How do I install spDE?</h2>
|
||
|
|
<p>First off, <a href="overlay.php">add my overlay</a>. Then simply run <code>emerge x11-misc/spde</code> as root. Apply required USE changes using <code>dispatch-conf</code> and then <code>U (use)</code>.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>Then simply <code>startx /usr/bin/speedwm_run</code> provided speedwm is used.</p>
