Ubuntu PPA

[PanderMusubi]

Could you please offer a packages via an Ubuntu PPA on Launchpad to install what is needed on Ubuntu via apt-get?

[deekayen]

I've not used bzr or hosted a deb before, but I'll look into it. I've at least gotten as far as https://launchpad.net/~deekayen

[deekayen]

https://launchpad.net/workmanlayout is what I've started. Nothing there yet but a page.

Any progress?

[deekayen]

no. i'm really stuck on how to do it. the only way I've figured out involves patching xorg files that I assume will get overwritten easily during apt-get processes. I could use some help.

[demonkoryu]

Well, in the absence of others, I could try to help out.

I dunno about PPA but this looks simple enough to use: https://github.com/peko/workman/tree/master/Linux/ubuntu/cli

Is an apt package still necessary? It appears that every currently supported version of mainstream Ubuntu (19.10, 18.04, 16.04, and 14.04 desktop and server) all have Workman bundled in.

[PanderMusubi]

Then not. If you want you can close this issue according to me.

I'm not on the organisation on GitHub or a "collaborator" on this project, so I can't close the issue myself.

If you agree with my assessment that an apt package is no longer needed, I suggest you close this issue. But if I overlooked a reason why the package could still be desired, please do explain so someone can implement it.

Thank you.
