Further Information:

budgie-desktop is the flagship desktop system for Solus.  Solus is an tier 1 distro using its own packaging mechanism eopkg.  Solus supports only its own distro (naturally) in a 64bit intel based system only.  The maintainer does accept bug-reports for other distro's as long as it is reproducible in Solus and/or the maintainer considers that the wider use of its desktop environment would be enhanced.

The maintainer does produce OBS packages for a number of distros - but not Debian.

For myself, I am the project leader of a Ubuntu based distro called budgie-remix that uses budgie-desktop as its choice of desktop.

Thus, my direct interest is ensuring that Debian and its derivative eco-system is enhanced by the incorporation of this exciting new desktop system.

Packaging Notes:
  To produce a debian package that works in debian and ubuntu I have used a more traditional rules based package rather than a simpler debhelper auto-build mechanism.  I have had to do it this way because debhelper does not produce binaries that actually work on a Ubuntu based platform - the desktop system fails to launch at logon.  The failure is silent - there is no obvious reason why debhelper autobuild fails to produce a working solution.

I've tested this traditional package mechanism on Debian Stretch 64bit (up-to-date today), Debian Stretch 32bit (up-to-date today), Ubuntu (64bit) 16.04 and Ubuntu (32bit) 16.04.

This build package has been used for two upstream releases now for budgie-remix and thus I have confidence that this mechanism will be sustainable in the long-term.

The patches incorporated are required for specifically Debian and Ubuntu and are used in budgie-remix itself.

Changes since the last upload:

  * initial Debian package

David Mohammed (fossfreedom)
