Solopasha/hyprland

Thank you. I saw the response and i was checking the repo mentioned on discord and it is active as of two minutes ago, so this is a good sign. This is the repo and its already on copr:

LionHeartP/hyprlandRPM

I would not promote that. The guy that hinted to that just looked for a recent repo. But it’s unofficial. Just a fork by some guy. It’s normal for the arch users since they are used to the AUR and unofficial packages. This could cause issues. For example there were recently malware discoveries in the AUR . I am not the friend of downloading from some random guy’s repo. That’s why I try to promote the regular dnf repo (instead of Copr) and a certain review process. Maybe its just me but I like to play it save.

Of course a nice dnf repo is the best option. but for now this is the only thing we have i think…

I have written an e-mail to the lead developer of hyprland (vaxry) and the community manager (notashelf). Tomorrow I will write the former maintainers of the official dnf repo.

On discord they said they are working on a official nix packaging that would work nice on fedora. This could be e new solution

Yes I can confirm that, they know about the problem and they recognize us Fedora users. vaxry, the lead dev of hyprland even gave a rough estimate “if successful, probably up to a few weeks.”, thats some great news. :tada: I will wait patiently and let them cook.

very nice, now we wait and pray :joy:

Hi all, i was wondering has the been any update from Solopasha?

Not yet, he still seems to be MIA.

I found this fork via JaKoolLit, i am not really aware of how to review it and be sure it’s not doing any “funny” stuff, but it seems to be wrking well with the recent fedora build. Anyone who feels inclined can check it out: https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/sdegler/hyprland/

I can survive without a tiling window manager and wait. There is no need to jump on another unofficial package if the hyprland devs announce an official cross-plattform one. Patience is a virtue.
