With this, it will build 3 packages

  • archinstall-gui-server
    The server that runs in the background and is needed to install

  • archinstall-gui-standalone
    That's the (chromium based) full screen launcher, that was there before

  • archinstall-gui-desktop
    is a menu entry that launches the default browser of the desktop and moves to http://127.0.0.1.

This split is important in cases people want to create an Archiso with desktop environment or a WM, where we don't need a full screen window or logic to start up X, but a menu entry.

It also comes with a nice Icon
grafik

It also uses git directly to get the sources, because I can't see a reason to not use it.

I will have a quick test of this, just to make sure everything looks decent in testing.
But I really like this change. I haven't had time to spend on the GUI installer as the console based version has been getting ready to be imported to the official ISO. But I'll get right on this one! : )

No pressure 👍 and good to know that the console one is already at this level, wow!
