Bug#1036906: debian-junior: Desktop environment for Debian Junior
Source: debian-junior
Version: 1.30
Severity: wishlist
X-Debbugs-Cc: stefan.kropp@posteo.de
I would like to provide a Desktop environment for Debian Junior
in Debian 13 (trixie). It would be very nice, if we will be able
to provide this task into the Debian Installer and provide a
Debian live system.
I'm thinking about adding a new metapackage
"junior-desktop-environment".

This list provides icewm as Window Manager, a mix of gnome
applications ( e.g. clock, calculator), libreoffice and
evolution, chat client, browser and a subset of games.
On the wiki page there is a gif showing how the first Debian
Junior Desktop could look like:

This is just a first step to get Debian Junior visible to Debian
users. The second step will be to work on ITP #1012463 [1]. The
new package "debian-junior-desktop" can be used to replace icewm
and some utils. "debian-junior-desktop" can also be used to
provide some scripts to setup the desktop.
