This is the source for the Kubuntu Focus Suite of tools, curated apps, UX preferences, and hardware optimizations that work in harmony with standard Kubuntu 24.04 LTS. It is carefully designed to avoid reinventing the wheel and does not, for example, contain a variation of an entire operating system, or a shell on top of it. Many enhancements that started in this repository have since been contributed and accepted upstream. This adds unique value to an already vibrant and broadly supported ecosystem and community.
Any and all development and changes go into a branch labeled NN-{YYYY}-{MM}
which is then merged into the code-name branch, noble. When released to the
public, tags are applied in the following format, where x is the numerical
release order:
# Tag Format
<name>/24.04.{x}
# Package directories
package-<name>
# Full Package Names
kfocus-<name>
All these are source packages. Many create multiple binary packages.

Packages are built using standard PPA preparation and uploaded to the [Kubuntu Focus PPA repository][_0100]. The following packages are built using unique methods:
package-linux-meta contains the metapackage for our latest supported kernel.
This is merged from the corresponding source package as published by
Canonical. The version in the latest development branch is most up-to-date and
is likely to be the version currently in use.
In general, avoid Predepends in packages and avoid changing any dependencies.
If you DO change a dependency, make sure one can install the full suite on top
of stock Kubuntu. For a full, pre-built ISO, see the Kubuntu Focus
Suite OEM image.
