Installing for Arch
--------

If you are running Arch Linux, you can install Graphene Desktop by adding
*repo.velt.io/$arch* to your list of repositories and installing the
package *graphene-desktop* via pacman. [Click here for more detail.](https://velt.io/veltos-installation/)

Building Manually
--------

graphene-desktop uses the following libraries and packages:

- cmake (build only)
- accountsservice
- gnome-control-center (optional)
- gnome-menus
- libpulse
- libcmk (https://github.com/VeltTechnologies/cmk)
- librsvg
- mutter >= 3.22
- nautilus (optional)
- networkmanager (optional)
- paper-gtk-theme-git >= 297 (optional)
- paper-icon-theme-git >= 552 (optional)
- polkit
- systemd
- upower (optional)

All of these are available from Arch's official repositories, the AUR,
or the vos repository. For any other Linux distros, you're on your own.

Download/clone this repo and

```bash

cd graphene-desktop
cmake .
sudo make all install
```

To run, start Graphene from a login manager such as LightDM, or execute
'graphene-desktop' from an X terminal. Graphene can also run on Wayland
by executing 'graphene-desktop --wayland' from a non-X terminal.

Uninstall by running 'sudo make uninstall' in the graphene-desktop directory.
This only works when install\_manifest.txt, a file created after installing, is
available.
