Can you add the option of ly display manager? about debian-titus HOT 7 OPEN

Hi. I have created a branch called ly in my fork.
https://github.com/nxjosephofficial/Debian-titus/tree/ly

If you already ran the install script, you can just use the codes below. You don't need to run install script again.

# Installing ly display manager dependencies
sudo nala install build-essential libpam0g-dev libxcb-xkb-dev

# Install ly display manager
git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/fairyglade/ly
cd ly
make -j$(nproc)
sudo make install installsystemd
cd ..
rm -rf ly

#  Disable sddm and enable ly
sudo systemctl disable sddm
sudo systemctl enable ly.service
sudo systemctl disable [email protected]

So would this work on an arm64 Debian install or would I have to modify the script to be arch=aarch64 or should that be arm64 to install the various packages e.g. brave browser?

Also, would this also require an install without an desktop environment?

Thanks

No, this doesn't matter. You can select your preferred environment in the display manager.

I'm not sure but it should work without any modify.

You are welcome.

Just in the script for things like brave it has arch listed as amd64, so as I use an pi4 I wondered if it would even work

from debian-titus.

Ah, yes. Brave's arch is amd64 in the script. Let me see if brave has arm64 build.

Yes, brave has arm64 build.

I updated the steps for installing brave browser:

# Install brave-browser
nala install apt-transport-https curl -y
curl -fsSLo /usr/share/keyrings/brave-browser-archive-keyring.gpg https://brave-browser-apt-release.s3.brave.com/brave-browser-archive-keyring.gpg
echo "deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/brave-browser-archive-keyring.gpg] https://brave-browser-apt-release.s3.brave.com/ stable main"|tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/brave-browser-release.list
nala update
nala install brave-browser

from debian-titus.

Tbh if I can't use brave, maybe flatpak as can then use librewolf it's a really good privacy orientated browser that would be a great option to have in the script

from debian-titus.

Actually it is easy to modify this script. You just put commands that you need to install packages.
