brocashelmis it possible to propose the addition of some packages onto devuan's repo? for example, gtk3-classic and/or gtk3-filechooser-icon-view added onto subsequent builds of libgtk-3-0, so we get a more "traditional" ui while the icons are more proper. there's also a glib-thumbnailer fork to automatically generate thumbnails without relying on something like tumbler, so icons generate on their own in the filechooser10:26
onefangSo long as you also have someone willing to do the work.  There's not many of us.10:51
brocashelmi have heard of a "community repo" where unofficial debian/devuan packages can be hosted. what ever happened to it? is it still in the talks?11:04
brocashelmi know there's this repo for gtk3-classic, but that's only for ceres: https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/home:bgstack15:gtk3-classic11:05
onefangI've not heard any more about this community repo since it was mentioned, and I did offer to add it to my mirror.11:06
brocashelmi wonder what the prerequisites would be? packages built specifically for devuan (even if no systemd dependency)? or, official deb packages copied over from the software creators (such as veracrypt) that will work on devuan systems?11:22
