## How to enable this repository

Repository is not enabled in Termux by default. First enable it to be able to install

its packages:

```

pkg install x11-repo

```

## Using X11 on Termux

Programs using the [X11 Windowing System] cannot be used standalone like normal

command-line utilities. Termux does not provide a native way for video output

and therefore you will need to install additional software.

The recommended setup is a [VNC] server (package `tigervnc`) running on

localhost and a [VNC Viewer] (by RealVNC Limited) Android application for

accessing the video output.

There possible to use other Xserver solutions like [XServer XSDL], but they are

not guaranteed to work properly with our packages.

More information about setting up a graphical environment is on the

[Termux Wiki].

**Only for Termux installations on Android 7.0 or higher.**

## Building packages

You can build all packages manually by using the provided docker image. The only

requirements are Linux-based host with Docker installed.

	Replace `${arch}` with target CPU architecture and `${package name}` with

	package name you want to build.
