Is manjaro-architect no longer being supported?

[alkapwn3d]

I noticed that there are no more official links to manjaro-architect or any recently updated versions available. im trying to reinstall but im having problems with the setup.

there seems to be a conflict with util-lib-linux and libutil-linux packages during the initial package updates. resolving the conflict separately creates new issues, ie some of the menu options have no items

This is the answer

Maintainer(s) wanted

I feel obligated to answer here and volunteer. Not only that I think the architect is the best way to install Manjaro, I just had a look into its sources today for what I need to do to add proper ZFS support as well as functions to automate the install via CLI or config files to use it with Ansible. @Chrysostomus I joined the Manjaro Gitlab. Anything besides what I want to add and change that needs to get looked at currently?

And probably is still in the works till is usable again.

You can still install the architect manually on any Manjaro iso and use it, but be aware of all the bugs. There is currently no guarantee that it will work as intended. Instructions are in the thread:

Maintainer(s) wanted

I’ve recently had trouble finding enough time for developing manjaro-architect. I’ve now been almost half a year without a proper hardware for testing, so it is difficult to get things done. Furthermore, I’m now focusing more on other projects like gnome edition and calamares (hybrid netinstall and better btrfs support). Manjaro-architect codebase is quite messy, and if I had time, I would probably rewrite it from scratch with narrower and more maintainable scope. I don’t want to abandon a work…

no guarantee that it will work as intended.

That’s true, I have to do a reinstall on my ThinkPad and for some reason it wasn’t working (because I was using the unstable branch) to install the packages. Retried and use stable worked (as always LUKS / BTRFS) setup

Reference:

Manjaro Tools broken can't build unstable iso, stable and testing OK

This is the unstable error … error: failed retrieving file 'core.db' from manjaro.moson.eu : Could not resolve host: manjaro.moson.eu It failed fetching all databases including my own one on gitlab and then can’t get the video files. Fails to build on both cinnamon and xfce so far. The strange thing is it builds root, desktop, and live but totally fails on mhwd.
