We are creating a series of YouTube videos under the “edu-“ label to guide users through the migration from ArcoLinux to Arch Linux. These tutorials aim to make the transition process smoother by explaining each step clearly and providing practical examples. Whether you’re switching to gain more control or to learn vanilla Arch, our edu- videos are here to support your journey.

ArcoLinux has stopped

Teaching never stops—because learning is a lifelong journey for all of us.

Creating a PKGBUILD for surfn-arc-breeze and putting it online on AUR for everyone to download

Let us make a pkgbuild for the surfn-arc-breeze because

  • you find something on internet that you want to have on your computer
  • it is not on the AUR
  • create your own pkgbuild
  • put it in the AUR for others to use

Read the AUR submission guidelines.

We use the Surfn pkgbuild that is already online.

Read all the PKGBUILD you can get and learn from them.

We add breeze-icons as depends.

Integrity is where we got stuck.

You can not make a checksum from a git source. You can make a checksum from a tar.gz coming from github.
