Room for new packages
thomaslemmens Linux LMMS installations require Wine
Please let me know it works if you add Wine to your install, then I will add that as a depend to lmms.
I failed to load a vst plugin (windows 32, win 64 or linux) neither in Lmms nor in Qtractor.
I've no idea why, I can only guess.
Maybe a compile option is missing.
The Qtractor manual list as one of the optional packages VST-SDK - Steinberg’s Virtual Studio Technology plugin format. The manual asks us to 'note that Qtractor can still use most VST plugins when using the included VeSTige reverse-engineered VST headers instead http://www.steinberg.net/'
Maybe in Lmms there is an issue because wine is called in Kaos by 'wine64' and not 'wine'
Maybe I did something wrong without knowing it.
demm ok to start a poll, but maybe add megasync and nextclod/owncloud together is the best way. I saw the price for these service for a year:
Megasync 400Gb or 2Tb 50€/100€
Nextcloud 100Gb or 200Gb 54€/108€
Pcloud 500Gb or 2Tb 50€/100€
Gdrive 100Gb or 200Gb or 2Tb 20€/30€/100€
but, Gdrive is built in plasma, Pcloud is an electron app. Just download and it works. Nextcloud have a very full service (calendar, mail, ecc) and megasync makes packages for a lot of distro. (great support for GNU/Linux).
My 2cents.

KBlocks? I was inspired by the entry on Planet.

Sure, can come back now, it used to be in, but wasn't ported when the full switch to Plasma 5 occurred, see libkdegames for the entry:

Intel media driver is the new replacement of libva intel driver, they should be in conflict, older cards should keep using old driver.

hi Demm,
I just discovered BashTop, a really cool system monitoring thing written entirely in Bash, see here:
https://www.linuxuprising.com/2020/04/bashtop-is-cool-linux-resource-monitor.html
It depends on core packages we already have in KaOS (this is the PKGBUILD for Arch):
# Maintainer: Sébastien Luttringer
pkgname=bashtop
pkgver=0.8.15
pkgrel=1
pkgdesc='Linux resource monitor'
arch=('any')
url="https://github.com/aristocratos/bashtop"
license=('Apache')
depends=('bash' 'coreutils' 'grep' 'sed' 'gawk' 'procps-ng')
makedepends=('git')
optdepends=(
'curl: themes download'
'lm_sensors: cpu temperatures'
)
source=("git+https://github.com/aristocratos/bashtop.git#tag=v$pkgver")
sha256sums=('SKIP')
package() {
cd $pkgname
install -Dm755 bashtop -t "$pkgdir/usr/bin"
}I would love to see this one added, since it would take very little extra package space to get part of default KaOS. What do you think?
If it's a bad idea, let me know, I'll add it on KCP...
Cheers,
Gunther

Very nice, added (though quite different PKGBUILD 
)

BashTop, Very nice.:

@chief Pretty sure this was asked before, and nothing changed, that app is complete Gnome based, requires just about the full Gnome stack, so, certainly won't be included.
https://github.com/jimevins/glabels-qt will be an option though, but not ready yet it seems.
