Hello, if you want another user for your system, you should make white background, and fix issues at the migration guide : https://wiki.artixlinux.org/Main/Migration, make it good quality, currently it contain mistakes.
Also I tried to install runit, and I do not like that it grabs extra dependencies, for runit, for example it takes runit-ldap, runit-lvm, but I do not have it in my system. I have haveged, but for some reasons your installer ignores it. Can you fix it in such way to prevent downloading and installing extra components ? Why do I need runit-audit, what is this ? I want to have clean system. Even if systemd is bloated, but your distro currently is low quality, I have no choice but continue to use systemd
Artix is not a company, so we will not be held hostage by such demands. The decision to use Artix or not is entirely on the user. If you don't like it, feel free to use whatever else you find better.
Why? Because some random guy said so? Please.
Being more specific would help.
grub mentioned multiple times
I like dark background.
If you like white/light background on wiki than block the dark theme by blocking these urls in your blocker:
https://wiki.artixlinux.org/pub/css/local.css
https://wiki.artixlinux.org/pub/skins/bootstrap-fluid/css/pmwiki.darkstrap.css
https://wiki.artixlinux.org/pub/skins/bootstrap-fluid/css/darkstrap.css
Can you be more specific? I used migration guide to migrate my VPS with default Archlinux and it wen fine.
I can mark it as: Works for me, unless you specify the details of what is wrong.
That was indeed a mistake in the documentation, but not one which would produce actual errors. pacman simply ignores duplicate packages given as arguments. Still, it has just been taken care of. Anything else?
Yes please, why when I am trying to migrate from arch, it offers to install extra runit services, like runit-ldap, runit-lvm. I think this is also mistake, because I do not have this tools in my system. Or I should manually edit this list ? If so, please provide tutorial which services should be there, because I am not familiar what is runit-audit Also I used systemd only before.
Why just not make an option to have light theme when you login for example ? And remember it in JS localstorage ?
I do not know if skins in PmWiki can be changed like that.
Can you look into it and inform us when you find a good and simple solution?
sure, I can look at it, can you give me sources for all dark services ? It is possible to do that without modifying the backend side. Also I need css links for the light theme
First, all the Artix packages which are related to init system have the names like
<package>-<init_system>, so, for example, there is no "runit-audit" package, but "audit-runit". Second, I don't see any mentions of those packages in the wiki article on migration. There is a separate section on LVM setups, but that is not part of the general procedure. If any packages are pulled as dependencies by those listed packages, then yes, they are neceessary and you should just accept their installation.
We are using standard PmWiki: https://www.pmwiki.org/
Regarding the light theme: https://wiki.artixlinux.org/pub/skins/bootstrap-fluid/css/bootstrap.css
But I would say it is some skip, either custom or "official".
We would love to have this change directly in PmWiki, it is pain to manage our own fork.
For modern web browsers there is a way to use the @media keyword and let browser decide which theme to use, but it is not always supported.
PmWiki doesn't offer per-user themes, and even if it did you'd need an account which we only provide to contributing members. Use
@SGOrava's solution.
I would read the following:
Installing package groups (https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/pacman#Installing_package_groups)
Migration is for advanced users that know what they are doing. (https://wiki.artixlinux.org/Main/Migration)
Because you are clearly NOT an advanced user, the following applies to you:
In general, doing a fresh installation is the preferred way to get started on Artix. (https://wiki.artixlinux.org/Main/Migration)

That's "RTFM" in Arch terms? ;D
The alleged installer is called
pacman . (https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Pacman)
The thread creator should know that.

Was kidding. You can find demanding users everywhere. Manjaro users always bash Artix and EOS not including pamac in installation. ;)
Manjaro users and EOS are like newborn children, they can't walk, they can't talk, they can't read and understand at the same time but they want to go to the stars.
pamac is as useful to an Arch/Artix user as a disposable nappy.
