Vieter is my personal solution to a problem I’ve been facing for months:
|
||
extremely long AUR package build times. I run EndeavourOS on all my systems,
|
||
meaning I'm updating my systems fairly frequently. I really like being a
|
||
beta-tester for projects & run development builds for multiple packages.
|
||
Because of this, I have to regularly re-build these packages in order to stay
|
||
up to date with development. However, these builds can take a really long time,
|
||
even on my more powerful laptop. This project is a solution to that problem:
|
||
instead of building the packages locally, I can build them automatically in the
|
||
cloud & just download them whenever I update my system! Thanks to this
|
||
solution, I’m able to shave 10-15 minutes off my update times, just from not
|
||
having to compile everything every time there’s an update.
|
||
|
||
Besides this, it’s also just really useful to have a repository server that you
|
||
control & can upload your own packages to. For example, I package my st
|
||
terminal using a CI pipeline & upload it to my repository!
