Cannot install it, no matter what.

After finding this repo I decided to make a clean Arch Linux install on an Thinkpad.When I try to run the script, I immediately get the following error: " Failed to install dependencies, try installing them manually and run './setup.sh apps orw fonts man' ". After which I installed all the programs showed in the log you got when you ran the script in this video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dEsl8Ncj6O0).Still nothing, is there a full list of dependencies, because I can't seem to figure out what makes the script brake on a normal Arch install that you said you tested first, being a Arch user.

Hi, thanks for giving this project a try! :)

Yes, the full list of dependencies can be find in setup.sh file, line 98 (common dependencies), and lines 138 - 141 (Arch specific).. Also, there is a -v (verbose) flag, so if that doesn't work, try running the script with -v to see which dependency is causing the process to break..

Let me know if this managed to solve anything, I'll be here if you need any additional help! :)

I didn't quite understood what linux distro you were using in the "ORW Tutorial - Installation" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dEsl8Ncj6O0), I'm trying to replicate the parameters the project it's usually ran/developed on, so maybe I'll succeed in running it successfully too.

In the demo I used ArchBang, Arch based distro which ships with Openbox preinstalled by default.. If you have a spare usb drive, try installing ArchBang on it (it can be booted in live environment) and try installing it that way..

I'm running vanilla Arch on my daily driver, it worked without any issue when I installed it, though it was like a year and a half ago :D The last time I tried it on ArchBang it worked fine though, maybe 2 months ago (when I recorded a rofi bar manager video), so it should be somewhat safer bet :)

Perfect, I'm installing ArchBang right now, had no luck with Arch or Artix for some reason(which is quite odd, but oh well).Going to update you as soon as I get everything set up.

Great, good luck! :)

It worked perfectly fine, thank you for the help :)

Oh, so glad to hear that.. Sorry for delayed response, I was quite busy past couple of days.. Anyway, it's great you made it work, do you know what caused the issues by any chance?
