AWESOME FOR QUBES RPM

This is an rpm package for awesome with the patches for qubes from https://gitlab.com/markwalters1009/awesome-source-for-qubes (which is a mildly tweaked version of https://github.com/woju/qubes-desktop-linux-awesome)

See that repository for details of the changes.

BUILD

The following steps (done in FC23 VM) should give you a binary rpm ready for installing.

1. Clone this repository

   clone https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-desktop-linux-awesome
   

2. Enter the repository

   ubes-desktop-linux-awesome/
   

3. Install build tools etc needed

    dnf install @development-tools fedora-packager rpmdevtools
   

4. Install awesome specific build tools

    dnf builddep awesome.spec
   

5. Download original awesome source files

   tool -g awesome.spec
   

6. Verify downloaded sources

    verify-sources
   

7. Build the rpms with

    rpms
   

8. Finally copy the rpm somewhere convenient with

   ./rpm/x86_64/awesome-3.5.9-1.fc23.x86_64.rpm /tmp/awesome.rpm
   

The full list of commands is

clone https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-desktop-linux-awesome
ubes-desktop-linux-awesome/
 dnf install @development-tools fedora-packager rpmdevtools
 dnf builddep awesome.spec
tool -g awesome.spec
 verify-sources
 rpms
./rpm/x86_64/awesome-3.5.9-1.fc23.x86_64.rpm /tmp/awesome.rpm

INSTALL

The build process above should have left the rpm in

 ../rpm/

All of the commands below should be run in dom0

1. Install unqubified awesome to get dependencies, and dex-autostart that we will need later.

    qubes-dom0-update awesome dex-autostart
   

2. Copy the rpm to dom0 with

   run --pass-io <rpm Qube> 'cat /tmp/awesome.rpm' > awesome.rpm
   

3. Now install the new rpm with

    dnf install awesome.rpm
   

4. Logout and select awesome when logging back in.

Finally, you can customise awesome as usual by creating/editing ~/.config/awesome/rc.lua
