I know endeavouros comes with xfce offline installer, while other DE such as Gnome can be downloaded in online installer
But how can we create offline installer for gnome, while other DE such as xfce, kde etc can be downloaded in online installer
What i am suggesting is just replace xfce with gnome as default DE - like community edition
Occasionally i have to travel.
So this new gnome EndeavourOs iso would be handy, if i dont have an fast internet connection
Like on my village in india
Out of curiosity, why would/should that happen? Because it is your personal preference?
Don’t forget that this isn’t a business, the team does all this work for the joy of it. Whatever DE they want to feature is the appropriate one to be on the offline installer.
The distro where we originated from, Antergos, had Gnome as their default DE. It is a lot of work to keep Gnome and custom theming like we did on XFCE up to date, since Gnome changes radically every 6 months, breaking the theme.
Check here, All that is needed to build the ISO is available here:
Pretty much you just need to use EndeavourOS-iso-next, change some packages in packages.x86_64 file…and perhaps configure few other files, i’m not sure about Gnome specifically though, maybe @joekamprad can give some more info
