main's Introduction
### NOIR
---
#### Official Repositories
---
The official repositories for NOIR Linux maintained by Daniel M. Matongo.
More information:
- https://kisslinux.org/package-system
- https://repology.org/repository/noir
---
NOIR is an independent Linux® distribution with a focus on performance and practical functionality.
---
1. Whats Different?
---
NOIR aims to become a minimal general purpose distro for
your pleasure;
- Cutting down on all dependancies and all other bloat to provide you with a functional distro
with as few packages and a much less combined package weight
as possible.
- Taking notes from Wyverkiss we want to be as GNU free as we
can and if we can't at least make GNU software optional.
- We also strive for stability in as much as we love functional minimalism.
2. BINARIES
---
NOTE: This assumes that the user trusts the source of the binary packages.
Regularly updated binaries are provided for the following packages:
- Firefox
- Chromium
- LLVM
Binaries for NOIR (musl) -> https://github.com/kiss-community/repo-bin
### Installing binaries
- Modify `KISS_PATH` such that the `bin` repository takes priority over other repositories:
$ export KISS_PATH=/path/to/main/bin:$KISS_PATH
- The packages can now be installed by a simple [kiss b $PKG && kiss i $PKG] command.

main's Issues
Remove symlinks
Repology is not a fan of the new KISS package source vars, they need to be removed.
Add `wayland` to main repos.
Add wayland support to NOIR.
Reduce number of packages in core
See for example: https://github.com/wyvertux/wyverkiss
See for example: https://github.com/glasnostlinux/glasnost
Some packages fail to build when bumped
- Set up build system to catch breaking files.
UPDATE ALL PACKAGES
TODO
- Update all packages
- Automate updates (pending)
- Create build pipeline to ensure that core packages are building successfully
- Ensure all packages build
Your os is now in prod?
Add Compilers to repo
- Nim
- Haskell
- Go
- Lua
- Ocaml
- R [r-lang]
- Ruby
- Vala
- Racket (Minimal)
- Crystal
- Fortran (Technically a compiler)
- D [d-lang]
- Janet
- V [v-lang]
- Chez Scheme
- GForth
- PForth
- LuaJIT
- Retro
- C# (mono)
- #21
- Zig
GCC yay or nay?
Consider switching away from gcc.
LLVM is a strong alternative, however this would drastically fracture all future plans for noir albeit impermanent, it'll be a notable drawback.
Considerations:
- Migrate to LLVM []
Benefits to noir:
Parity NOIR and KISS Community repo
Kiss Comunity switched the KISS package manager to blake3. A change I personally would like to avoid.
Options are;
- Switch to blake3
- Modify
kissto account for both (obfuscation) - Maintain a separate Community repo
Have NOIR added to repology.
This will make package management easier.
Tarball size
TODO:
- Make tarball smaller < 40 would be ideal
Restore Xorg
I'll divert attention towards making NOIR compatible with https://github.com/ehawkvu/kiss-xorg
Migrate from `libressl` to `openssl`.
Migrate NOIR from libressl to openssl following upstream KISS.
Change release naming style.
The current style is non descriptive.
2021m could easily be mistaken for a 2021-march or 2021-may
New convention will be
YEAR-MONTH-RELEASE
i.e
2021-AUG-1.tar.xz
Problem packages
- libinput
- mesa
- xkeyboard-config
Java [non native]
Flatpak Inclusion
- Add Flatpak to repo
Drop X.org
With wayland adoption increasing I should consider dropping wayland.
