ArcoLinux v23.09

Calamares

New code from 12 July 2023 – alpha 6

Adding your network printer automatically

We have added a systemd service so that your network printer is immediately installed if the system recognizes your printer.

ArcoLinux Application Glade

AAG has now the possibility to build the Ariser iso.

https://ariser.eu

Ariser iso is without a doubt an interesting project.

No Calamares – just pure Arch and any package you like from AUR.

Pacman.conf

In order to have uniform pacman lines through Arch, Alci, Carli, Ariser we change the content of /etc/pacman.conf.

It simplifies also the python code for

  • ArchLinux Tweak Tool
  • Sofirem
  • ArcoLinux App
  • ArcoLinux Spices Application
  • ArcoLinux App Glade.
