[NEWS] Bootstrapping native Void Linux (ppc64le) on Talos II

<< < (2/3) > >>

MPC7500:
cpufetch v1.07 has a little bug, but v1.06 works out of the box.
For fastfetch: LuaJIT is not supported. Lua support is optional.

DKnoto:
I made an almost identical fix in fill_array_from_sys, but there's still a memory leak in that function.

In that case, I'll have to remove the dependency, but it'll be hard to track down because it's not a direct dependency.

MPC7500:
Void is using lua54-devel.

If you don't need Enlightenment detection, remove efl-devel from the fastfetch template and set -DENABLE_EET=OFF. This should eliminate a large portion of the 608-package dependency tree, including LuaJIT.

DKnoto:
I’ve adopted a different build philosophy: I don’t want to forcefully reduce dependencies, but rather compile as much as possible. I only reduce dependencies when I have to. Additionally, I have testing software that checks a large number of different Lua versions and dialects.


I build the Enlightenment environment directly from the source code in the project repository. Version 0.27.0 has slightly fewer features.

I've already built 1,877 packages ;-)
