Hello, I would like to ask if I can remove the following endeavouros apps: eos update notifier, wallpaper-once (by endeavouros), is it safe to remove them ?, and what are the commands to remove these applications.
I don’t use the update notifier because I update every day, and the wallpaper-once I see somewhat useless.
Thanks to those who help me and excuse me for being so uneducated.
Yes, you should be able to remove any of the eos-specific applications. Although, if you remove eos-hooks you won’t really have an EndeavourOS system anymore.
sudo pacman -Rc eos-update-notifier
I am not sure what wallpaper once is, where are you seeing that?
Yes. Feel free to remove anything from the endeavouros repo. None of it is necessary for a functioning system (though some things in there are quite nice, in my opinion).
You will probably want to keep yay, though. Not necessary, but very useful. Everything else is just cosmetics and useful scripts and apps (though usefulness is subjective, of course).
Actually, AFAIK pacdiff itself comes with installation of pacman (part of the pacman-contrib toolset). EnOS merely provides an easier access to it in a consistent manner (and requiring less typing!).
A similar effect can be achieved with: DIFFPROG=meld sudo pacdiff - assuming that meld is your choice for comparing, and sudo your choice for root capability, of course. For myself, if I don’t happen to have Welcome handy, I use DIFFPROG=meld su-c_wrapper pacdiff for pacnew updating (via alias - I’m lazy!)
