d-packages

A personal collection of Arch Linux packages, hosted on DGit for use with paru/pacman.

This repo exists for three kinds of packages:

• No AUR package at all — tools I use that nobody has packaged (often because they're mine, or too niche).
• AUR maintainer lets it go stale — a package exists on the AUR, but updates lag behind upstream (or it's sitting flagged out-of-date), so it's tracked directly here instead.
• Critical packages — things I depend on enough that I want a copy I control, independent of whether the AUR (or a given AUR maintainer) is reachable.

Packages here are built and kept up to date automatically (see .forgejo/workflows/): most check upstream on a schedule and rebuild only when something actually changed, so installing from this repo tracks upstream about as closely as building it yourself would.

Available Packages

Click a package name to see its registry page (build info, versions, install instructions).

Package	Description	Arch	Auto-updated	Notes
upkg-git	No-nonsense simplistic package manager wrapper focusing on extendability and ease of use	any	every 30 min	Personal project
dgit-listener-git	Accepts signals from external CI and dispatches d-packages workflows	x86_64	on signal	Personal project; the signal broker itself — pings this workflow on its own push to main
domctl-git	Docker container control CLI	any	on signal	Personal project; no schedule, built on demand via dgit-listener
wf-observer-git	Read-only Warframe process observer with an Iroh endpoint (latest main)	x86_64	every 30 min	Project of a friend, here for redundancy
companion-prime-git	Warframe companion desktop app that connects to Warframe Observer (latest main)	x86_64	every 30 min	Temporarily disabled. Project of a friend (same org as wf-observer); upstream repo is private, so the runner authenticates with the GH_TOKEN secret
wf-observer-bin	Read-only Warframe process observer with an Iroh endpoint (prebuilt release)	x86_64	on signal	No schedule — built on a signal from upstream's CI (see dgit-listener), with push/workflow_dispatch as manual fallbacks
lnctl-bin	LightNode command-line interface	x86_64	daily	Does not exist on the AUR
mutagen-bin	Code synchronization tool for remote development	x86_64, aarch64, armv7h, i386	every 3 h
onedrive-git	Free OneDrive client written in D — abraunegg's fork (latest git)	i686, x86_64, armv7h, aarch64	every 30 min
kwin-polonium-git	Tiling window manager for KWin 6 (latest master)	x86_64, i686, aarch64, armv7h	every 30 min	AUR kwin-polonium only tracks tagged releases
orbolay-git	Quick, small, native Discord overlay alternative for modded clients	x86_64	every 30 min
lune-git	The CLI build tool for shelter, a Discord client mod	any	every 30 min	Does not exist on the AUR
positron-ide-bin	A next-generation data science IDE from Posit	x86_64, aarch64	every 3 h
visual-paradigm-community-bin	UML design application	x86_64	every 12 h
legcord-git	Legcord dev build using the system electron — lightweight Discord client mod	x86_64, aarch64	every 3 h
gns3-server	GNS3 network simulator, Server package	x86_64, aarch64	every 3 h	Copy of the AUR package; follows pre-releases, in lockstep with the gns3-gui cask
nerd-fonts-inter	Inter font patched with the Nerd Fonts patcher	any	every 3 h	Fork of the AUR package; Inter's private use area alternates are unmapped before patching so the Nerd Fonts patcher no longer overwrites them (it broke tnum/ss07 substitutions, e.g. the Plasma clock's colon rendered as a globe). Tracks Inter releases, and Nerd Fonts releases within the current major; a new Nerd Fonts major only raises a workflow warning.

"Auto-updated" reflects the schedule in .forgejo/workflows/; "manual" means the PKGBUILD is only updated by hand when needed; "on signal" means there's no schedule at all — the workflow only runs when dgit-listener dispatches it.

Licensing

Verified against each project's actual license file/metadata upstream, not just the PKGBUILD's license= field (which in a couple of cases turned out to be wrong or imprecise).

Package	License	Notes
upkg-git	MIT	Upstream Cargo.toml/LICENSE both say MIT; this PKGBUILD's license= field incorrectly says GPL-3.0-or-later
dgit-listener-git	MIT OR Apache-2.0	Matches upstream Cargo.toml; repo ships separate LICENSE-MIT and LICENSE-APACHE files
domctl-git	MIT OR Apache-2.0	Matches upstream Cargo.toml
wf-observer-git	MIT OR Apache-2.0	Repo ships separate LICENSE-MIT and LICENSE-APACHE files
lnctl-bin	Proprietary	Vendor CLI (LightNode); no public license terms found for the tool itself
mutagen-bin	MIT, partially SSPL	Core is MIT, but official release builds (what this package ships) bundle SSPL-licensed code by default since v0.17 — SSPL is not an OSI-approved open-source license
onedrive-git	GPL-3.0	Upstream doesn't state "or later" anywhere; this PKGBUILD's license= field says GPL-3.0-or-later, which is unconfirmed
kwin-polonium-git	MIT	Matches upstream package.json and license.txt
orbolay-git	GPL-3.0	Plain GPLv3 LICENSE file; no "or later" grant found in the repo
lune-git	CC0-1.0	Confirmed via this specific subpackage's own package.json (the parent shelter monorepo is CC0-1.0 too)
positron-ide-bin	Elastic License 2.0	Source-available, not an OSI-approved open-source license — has usage restrictions
visual-paradigm-community-bin	Proprietary, free for non-commercial use only	EULA-bound freeware, not open source
legcord-git	OSL-3.0	Confirmed via upstream package.json
gns3-server	GPL-3.0-or-later	Plain GPLv3 LICENSE, but source headers grant "or (at your option) any later version"; this PKGBUILD's license= field (carried over from the AUR) says GPL-3.0-only. The AUR packaging files themselves are 0BSD (see REUSE.toml)
nerd-fonts-inter	OFL-1.1	Inter is SIL OFL 1.1 and the patched output stays under it; the PKGBUILD's license= field (custom:OFL) is carried over from the AUR

Package Information

Naming follows a fixed scheme:

• -git: tracks upstream on a timer and rebuilds on every new commit; pkgver encodes the commit count and short hash.
• -bin: the PKGBUILD's actual payload is a downloaded prebuilt binary/artifact, not something built from source.
• no suffix: everything else (built from source, versioned by discrete upstream releases rather than every commit).

Adding the Repository

Setup and install instructions are per-package — click the package name in the table above to open its registry page for the exact paru/pacman configuration and install command.

Homebrew (macOS/Linux)

Some packages are additionally mirrored as Homebrew formulae in Formula/ and casks in Casks/, kept in sync by the same workflows that update the PKGBUILDs, so the two never drift apart. Names match the Arch package names.

Homebrew package	Type	Notes
upkg-git	formula	Built from source with cargo
domctl-git	formula	Built from source with cargo; stable Rust is enough here, despite the PKGBUILD pinning nightly
lune-git	formula	Built with pnpm, run through the node formula
positron-ide-bin	cask	Positron.app; separate arm64 and x64 builds, checksums pinned from upstream's releases.json
visual-paradigm-community-bin	cask	Visual Paradigm.app; separate x86_64 and Apple Silicon builds, each with its own bundled JRE
gns3-gui	cask	GNS3.app; universal build. Always the same version as the gns3-server Arch package, since the GUI refuses to connect to a server of any other version. Conflicts with the official gns3 cask, which only tracks stable releases

The remaining packages are Linux-only (.deb payloads, systemd-libs/GTK dependencies, .desktop files) and have no meaningful macOS equivalent, so they stay Arch-only.

brew trust https://git.denaerium.com/Denaerium/d-packages.git
brew tap Denaerium/d-packages https://git.denaerium.com/Denaerium/d-packages.git
brew install denaerium/d-packages/upkg-git
brew install --cask denaerium/d-packages/positron-ide-bin

Both the trust and the tap must name the clone URL, not Denaerium/d-packages. Homebrew (7.0+) treats a bare user/repository trust entry as referring to that tap on its default GitHub remote, so trusting the short name leaves a tap hosted here untrusted — brew tap then fails with a wall of Invalid formula (<os>) / Refusing to load formula ... from untrusted tap errors, ending in Cannot tap denaerium/d-packages: invalid syntax in tap!. Trusting the URL fixes it; the "invalid syntax" is misdirection, the formulae parse fine.

AI Disclosure

Parts of this repository and its documentation (including this README, such as the licensing table above) were assembled with the help of Anthropic's LLM models. That information may be incomplete, outdated, or simply wrong — do not rely on it. If correctness matters for your use case (licensing in particular), verify it yourself against the upstream project.
