elucidate

A neat Bash script to build/install/update the Enlightenment ecosystem on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS.

Please take a look at the comments in the script before running it.

Note

It may be useful to keep a record of the pre-existing system status, before proceeding with the installation.

Check out our backup script.

Get started

First, you will need to install git on your system.

Open a terminal window and type in the following:

sudo apt install git

Next, clone the repository with:

git clone https://github.com/batden/elucidate.git .elucidate

This creates a new hidden folder named .elucidate in your home directory.

Copy the elucidate.sh file from the new .elucidate folder to your download folder.

Navigate to the download folder and make the script executable:

chmod +x elucidate.sh

Then execute the script:

./elucidate.sh

To run it again later, open a terminal and simply type:

elucidate.sh

Tip

Use auto-completion: Type eluc and press the Tab key.

That's it.

You can uninstall Enlightenment and related applications from your computer at any time.

See eloge.sh.

Update local repo

It is good practice to check for updates to the local repository before using the script.

To do so, change to ~/.elluminate/ and run:

git pull
