vauxite-build

This is my personalized Vauxite configuration. Vauxite is an unofficial Xfce variant of ostree-based Fedora. I'm currently working with Fedora developers to make it an official variant. There is already a sort-of-official treefile for Vauxite at https://pagure.io/workstation-ostree-config, as well as an experimental Vauxite container image hosted at https://quay.io/repository/fedora-ostree-desktops/vauxite.

The vauxite.json treefile and xfce-desktop-pkgs.yaml under the src directory contain my personal customizations and differ from the upstream ones. As such, they may not be suitable for everyone.

How I use this repository

How I previously used this repository

  • I run Fedora Server in a VM on my homelab machine. This Fedora Server has the ostree and rpm-ostree commands installed.
  • I clone this repository as root under /var/local/vauxite-build.
  • I then run the ostree-engine script to build and deploy a new commit for the given reference branch (e.g. vauxite/f39/x86_64/main). The rsync-repos command is used in the ostree-engine script to deploy the resulting OSTree repository to a web server root, which serves as the remote repository.

    To add the repository as a remote on my local client machine:

    sudo ostree remote add --no-gpg-verify vauxite <URL of web server>

    I then rebase to the vauxite branch:

    rpm-ostree rebase vauxite:vauxite/f39/x86_64/main

    To build new commits that contain updates, I put this in /etc/cron.d/ostree-engine on the Fedora Server:

    0 0 * * 2 root /var/local/vauxite-build/ostree-engine

    This will run the ostree-engine script every Tuesday at midnight. Then I can update my local client machine like this:

    rpm-ostree update
