Aemeath

An experimental immutable Linux distribution based on the Freedesktop SDK, running the KDE Plasma desktop environment.

Aemeath does not have a package manager. System updates are image-based, while applications are installed from Flatpak. It aims to include the latest KDE software, while building on top of the same Freedesktop SDK used by the Flatpak runtime.

WARNING: Aemeath is currently very experimental, and not ready to use as a daily driver. It is recommended to run Aemeath inside a virtual machine with 3D acceleration enabled, to prevent your real data from being eaten by the Threnodian.

Current Status

Right now, it sort of boots into the desktop, but packaging is still pretty much a mess, especially Plasma ones. This will get cleaned up in due time, but until then, you'll need to bear with it for a while.

An S3 bucket for downloads has been set up, but there's no easy way to access them yet. systemd-sysupdate does not use the S3 bucket yet.

Secure Boot is currently missing from the installation.

Download

Coming soon. The bucket is set up, but there's no index page for now.

Building

Aemeath is currently built as a raw disk image.
