Need a tagged release for distro support #20
Comments
Sure, I'll create a release soon, once I've fixed some of the current issues, and after deciding on some breaking changes. |
I've released 0.1.0. You can find it here: https://github.com/rharish101/ReGreet/releases/tag/0.1.0 |
Thanks! Given that you posted the VCS packaging to the AUR I'm assuming you use Arch yourself. I'd be glad enough of somebody to test the greetd related packages currently in [community-testing], very shortly to include this. BTW I invented a minimal config file to include in the packaging, but it would be nice if this was upstreamed. That or the "sample" config should not what are defaults or not and probably have everything commented out so people can add in just what they want to override. If you want a separate issue or PR related to that I can do so later. |
Thanks for being a maintainer!
Sure, I'll test them out and give you feedback when I have time (might need a few days).
The sample config is meant to give a headstart for those looking to configure ReGreet, and also serve as documentation for the available options. When it comes to defaults, not every option's default is well known, for example GTK settings (since that depends on what the "default theme" and other defaults are set for the user that ReGreet runs as). That is why I designed ReGreet to function without any config, and why I've supplied a sample config. Let me know if there's a use case I've missed though. |
I had to supply a config by default to get the power commands working because the At the moment the package as installed on my test system isn't showing any sessions. Any suggestions there? The default sessions path should be right for Arch... |
That's odd; can you run
Could you attach the log file after running ReGreet with |
I tested it, and here's my feedback:
I think point 2 explains why you weren't able to see the sessions list. Maybe dropdown menus in GTK4 use a feature that Cage doesn't support, since it works fine on Sway. If it works for you with Sway, then it would be better to remove the dependency on Cage and adding Sway. Since the user has to manually add the greeter command to EDIT: Cage works perfectly well, if the latest git commit is used. Since that's on the AUR instead of the main Arch repos, my recommendations as written above still hold. Point 3, however, is strange, since I'm able to run those commands without superuser access. Could you confirm whether you are able to run |
Hi @alerque, would it be possible to drop the I also noticed that you maintain Thank you! |
I am willing to adjust this, but we do need some kind of compositor dependency. Even with Not including a compositor in the gtkgreet package was kind of an oversight, although mitigated by that package having transitive dependency on wayland and a whole bunch of other stuff. |
I have refrained from installing the package because of the dependencies. Maybe optional dependencies for some compositors could be added instead? |
I'm working at bringing official builds of
greetd
to the Arch Linux [community] repository. I'll have at least a couple of the most common greeters to go with it but personally this one looks like something I'd want to run. Please consider adding a stable release tag (even a v0.1.0) to match the Cargo file you already have to the Git repository at some known working state. It's pretty hard to package software without some upstream nod to a release point.The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
