Packages in the official MatterLinux repos follow these guidelines:
- Packaged software should be free or/and open source: Proprietary software won't be included to the repos. However, we may make exceptions for the drivers.
- Packaged software should be stable: Software known to be unstable will not packaged, if the stability is related to the version of the software, we may package a different/patched version of the software.
- Packaged software should be secure: Outdated software that has critical vulnerabilities will not be packaged.
- Packaged software should be (somewhat) popular: No, we are not gonna package some random ass window manager that only has 3 users and was last updated in 1993
The following software packages will not be added, so do not waste your time with PRs or issues:
- DWM or other Suckless tools that are configured using header files
- Any Wayland window managers ("compositors"), we only have Weston which used for testing the Wayland environment
- Other init systems (
sysvinit,runitetc.) - Non-libre kernel
- Snap
