AerynOS introduces package sets and KDE packages |
 |
AerynOS is an independently-developed, rolling-release Linux distribution designed for general desktop use. The project is introducing package sets (collections of packages) used to provide specific functionality. "Package sets are a collection of packages that are related or used together for a specific purpose. In AerynOS, they are used for consolidating our base system packages and for each of our offered Desktop Environments / Window Managers.
Each Desktop Environment offered by AerynOS has an associated package set (usually 'recommended”). Depending on the environment, we may optionally offer a 'minimal” and/or 'full” solution with less or more packages to better suit our users requirements.
The package set model we have implemented is a stepping stone technology, not the final solution we are looking to implement. It introduces the basic premise of virtual sets of packages and is a precursor to our 'system-model” work that will allow for exact reproduction of a user’s installed system." The project has introduced several other changes, including KDE Plasma packages in the repository, and details can be found in the August Project Update.
