I installed EnOS over a year ago and have kept the default xfce4 DE after installation but recently the two packages endeavouros-skel-default and endeavouros-skel-xfce4 have shown up as packages “not in the AUR” and listed as explicitly installed by pacman -Qm.
I saw the posts by @fao amd @Atomic-no-80 evoking the same thing but as they seem to be using the Plasma DE and not xfce4 like me, I am a little concerned that removing them might stop me logging back into Xfce. There is no warning of conflicting packages, so I assume they are superfluous. Could those wiser than me give a word of advice?
Think all the “endeavour-” where renamed to “eos-” all those two do is provide the base themeing and settings in /etc, so you can get rid as they will not touch your home.
Thanks for your quick reply, but I have no packages that start with “eos-”. From my limited understanding looking at package descriptions it is part of the xfce4-theming for the pre-Galileo release of Endeavouros and sets up the “skeleton” for the first user. Since I’m not going to reinstall myself as a user, I suppose it can be removed in that it is no longer in the official repos or the AUR; hence the error message I keep getting.
Sorry, I missed your reply while trying to see what the packages do. I seem to have guessed right from my reply below. I might keep them for sake of nostalgia
I’ve another desktop installation of the Galileo version but having a hard time getting used to Plasma.
