Pantheon DE - SIG

[amz (Christopher Crouse)]

Hi everyone!

@decathorpe has been doing some great work in packaging the Pantheon Desktop Environment (DE), and it would be awesome if we can work towards providing an official Fedora Pantheon spin.

I was wondering if anyone is interested in starting / joining a Pantheon SIG, who is willing to help with testing, providing feedback and a general interest in seeing a more polished Pantheon DE on Fedora?

Please leave a comment below if you are interested and let’s make this happen!

Thanks,
Christopher

Until recently, the project was just me alone, and I didn’t really have time to do more than maintain the packages, but with more people involved, I think we could actually pull off making a decent Pantheon Spin.

Does that mean there is a Pantheon Silverblue image? Or do I just layer the package from this post Kinoite, a KDE (and now XFCE) version of Fedora Silverblue - #153 by siosm ?

So I maintain an unofficial variant of Silverblue with the Pantheon DE for Silverblue users. You can either use this ref directly and rebase to it or overlay the Pantheon packages on top of Silverblue. Feel free to reach out if things are broken or packages missing.
