I'm using XFCE installed from Trisquel's repos, but it appears to be 4.8. What's the best way to upgrade to 4.10? Download the source? Is a package availalbe? I don't want to introduce conflicts and break packages if I can avoid it.
Thanks!
Add ppa:xubuntu-dev/xfce-4.10.Try ppa:xubuntu-dev/xfce-4.12 if you want the beta. (NOTE: FOR ppa:xubuntu-dev/xfce-4.12 YOU NEED ppa:xubuntu-dev/xfce-4.10 FIRST!)
You may need to patch a package. This is an updated script for doing that.
#!/bin/sh cd /tmp/ mkdir build-trisquel-desktop-common-data cd build-trisquel-desktop-common-data/ # install build dependencies sudo apt-get build-dep trisquel-desktop-common-data -y # get package source (without sudo) apt-get source trisquel-desktop-common-data # get patch for removing package wget https://trisquel.info/files/issues/ignore-errors.patch cd trisquel-desktop-common-data-6.0/ # apply patch patch debian/postrm ../ignore-errors.patch # remove file rm data/etc/xdg/autostart/xscreensaver.desktop -f # build deb package dpkg-buildpackage -uc -us cd .. # install the package sudo dpkg -i trisquel-desktop-common-data_6.0-*_all.deb cd .. rm -rf build-trisquel-desktop-common-data/
What's the license for the script?
I think it is too small and simple to be needing a license (you can just read it and rewrite it easily). That being said, you can use it under GPLv3.
Just to pick at this ... sorry and all that ...
Better to simply declare it public domain. Using the GPLv3 for a simple (trivial) script is like cracking a nut with a steamroller. Wrong tool.
Specifically, using the GPLv3 means that this 22 line BASH script would have to be distributed with a copy of the licence etc etc. Impractical and pointless at best, at worst it degrades the use of GPL licences.
Use the GNU all-permissive license
https://gnu.org/prep/maintain/html_node/License-Notices-for-Other-Files.html#License-Notices-for-Other-Files,
a well-known permissive license or CC0.
You cannot just "declare it public domain" in many jurisdictions outside
US and UK, so it would need an additional free license. CC0 is
practically equivalent to public domain with a fallback permissive
license. The GNU all-permissive license is much shorter and easier to
understand.
