Table Notes and Explanations

(Please refer to the table below.)
  • Select view:
  • To compare the software in this project to the software available in other distributions, please see our Compare Packages page.
  • Notes: In case where multiple versions of a package are shipped with a distribution, only the default version appears in the table. For indication about the GNOME version, please check the "nautilus" and "gnome-shell" packages. The Apache web server is listed as "httpd" and the Linux kernel is listed as "linux". The KDE desktop is represented by the "plasma-desktop" package and the Xfce desktop by the "xfdesktop" package.
  • Colour scheme: green text = latest stable version, red text = development or beta version. The function determining beta versions is not 100% reliable due to a wide variety of versioning schemes.

I have tried installing this multiple times and this implementation of Calamares installer is terrible, I could never get it to install because of various errors. Even using Gemini to help troubleshoot the issues, it did not work. I have used the Calamares installer on various other distros,on the same computer, and have not had any issues.

The reason I gave it a 5 is because the support on the Discord channel was amazing. The developer bent over backwards to help resolve the problem.

Maybe I will try it again in the future.

I downloaded and tried running in Virtualbox. ISO boots up ok. Once desktop loads, all but one of the desktop icons/launchers fail to work. Even after the launchers are set to be executable, they fail to find the script that is supposed to be called to run. Calamares is provided as the graphical installer and the installer fails to run. Running Calamares in the terminal yields an error pointing to an incorrect version of a libkpmcore shared library. The lack of attention to detail and non-existent quality check shows. Run away!

I've reviewed this distro on my YouTube Channel several times. This is my favorite barebones Arch install. This should be appealing to both powerusers and noobs alike. It's got a lot of compiling software installed by default and has a few other goodies that powerusers will enjoy. I think it has a lot of good software as a base, and it includes flatpaks to get optimal versions of all your favorite software. So, if you are looking for a small, lightweight distro to get out of your way and let you build what you want with your distro--it's great.
