Provide prebuilt Arch packages as alternative to AUR ones and local PKGBUILDs

Open clsty opened this issue 10 months ago • 2 comments

What would you like to be added? Provide prebuilt Arch packages as alternative to AUR ones and local PKGBUILDs. Useful links:

  • https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Pacman/Tips_and_tricks#Custom_local_repository
  • https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Pacserve
  • https://github.com/vifly/arch-build
    • This project uses GitHub Actions to upload packages to GitHub Releases automatically.
  • https://github.com/archlinuxcn/lilac

How will it help

  • Fast installation speed.
  • Stable installation result.
  • Allows BlendOS to use this project as discussed here
    • BlendOS seems to be using container technic for Arch/AUR packages. If BlendOS is supported, we may be able to support DistroBox (using similar technic) too, which runs on most distros.

Excuse me, I really need this. Is it still planned or in progress? May I ask where the current process is going?

Sorry I do not have time for this recently. If you know how to implement this via github actions, PR is welcomed.

I'm closing this in favor of Nix to provide the stable installation result, and Nix also support binary packages which we may implement in future. See #1061
