mhbell Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 Just downloaded and installed on Vbox OB Revenge based on Arch. it uses the Calamares Installer. It is kind of Neat. It has a menu on the background telling what key combinations to use for different things. Mel 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
securitybreach Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 Interesting, I will have to check it out in virt/qemu. Does it use custom repos with AUR enabled or vanilla sources? Basically is it simply an installer for Archlinux or is there more. I seen a mention of the Revenge tool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saturnian Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 mhbell (or anyone else who has OBRevenge up and running), would you mind posting the contents of the /etc/pacman.conf file? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
securitybreach Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 I will when I get home but it will be about 6 hours from now as I am at work. I downloaded it this morning to try out in a VM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

raymac46 Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 Sort of looks like the Antergos model - use the Arch repos mostly and have a separate Revenge repo for specific needs/features. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saturnian Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 Yep. Except in my Antergos installation, the default had the antergos repo above the core, extra, and community repos. I've since moved the antergos repo to the end, like where the revenge_repo is there. Hm, Antergos also had multilib enabled, but I commented that one out. Here's the default /etc/pacman.conf I had in Antergos: # # /etc/pacman.conf # # See the pacman.conf(5) manpage for option and repository directives # # GENERAL OPTIONS # [options] # The following paths are commented out with their default values listed. # If you wish to use different paths, uncomment and update the paths. #RootDir = / #DBPath = /var/lib/pacman/ #CacheDir = /var/cache/pacman/pkg/ #LogFile = /var/log/pacman.log #GPGDir = /etc/pacman.d/gnupg/ #HookDir = /etc/pacman.d/hooks/ HoldPkg = pacman glibc #XferCommand = /usr/bin/curl -C - -f %u > %o #XferCommand = /usr/bin/wget --passive-ftp -c -O %o %u #CleanMethod = KeepInstalled #UseDelta = 0.7 Architecture = auto # Pacman won't upgrade packages listed in IgnorePkg and members of IgnoreGroup #IgnorePkg = #IgnoreGroup = #NoUpgrade = #NoExtract = # Misc options #UseSyslog #Color #TotalDownload CheckSpace #VerbosePkgLists # By default, pacman accepts packages signed by keys that its local keyring # trusts (see pacman-key and its man page), as well as unsigned packages.
