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.

How to make a PKGBUILD for ufetch-arco

Ufetch is one of your funscripts that we can install on our system.

You can find all the information about the fun script here.

We discover that ufetch has a specific Arco look for the script.

We decided to make a separate package for ArcoLinux called ufetch-arco-git.

Follow the video to see the procedure how to change the current ufetch pkbuild from AUR and change it into an ufetch-arco pkgbuild.

We use meld to compare both PKGBUILDs. Original one and the one of ArcoLinux.

Learn by comparing.

We name the packages differently to avoid conflicts. We have now the command ufetch and ufetch-arco.

Just be save  – the way we build things can only be done on Arch Linux based systems.

Install with 

sudo pacman -S ufetch-arco-git

and 

test with

ufetch-arco

in the terminal.
