Draco 0.9.0 x86_64 (desktop environment)
Here's an experimental module of Draco 0.9.0 x86_64. I'm running on Porteus 5 internal test build, so I'm not sure if it runs on Porteus 4:

I didn't have time to polish it, but my impression is that this DE is still very immature, and the performance (DE startup and recommended file manager startup) is something to be desired.
TODO:
1- replace network-manager-applet (GTK) with nm-tray (Qt);
2- create custom actions;
3- fix file associations;
4- investigate why right click is so slow;
5- remove some useless libs;
6- install an archiver manager;
7- install gparted;
8- set XDG_RUNTIME_DIR;

Only qt base and x11 (qt5-5.12.3-x86_64-1jss, qt5-qtx11extras-5.12.3-x86_64-1jss) are sufficient. Dont think it uses the svg library. Qtscript is definitely not needed.
Missing icon theme. You would need Adwaita and probably hicolor icon themes for icons to be shown. I tried changing theme which is not possible, probably obconf is needed. Have to check if some other icon theme like Paper or Surfn can be used.
Also, you havent added any filemanager. Qtfm is what is recommended.
There's also the xdg run time dir warning everytime a terminal (qterminal or uxterm) is opened - not seen in my build. Is the XDG_RUNTIME_DIR set?
The draco pkg info is missing in /var/lib/pkgtools/packages. Did you build draco using a SlackBuild script?

It was just an experimental build, no pretension to make something rock solid. But, hey, qtfm and obconf-qt are there! You didn't check well
I'll remove the useless packages. Thanks!

Updated. Now icons are shown.
jssouza, I didn't install all the packages, but simply copied some of them

Looks much better now with the icons
There's a SlackBuild already in the project's github page - https://github.com/rodlie/draco/tree/ma ... /slackware. There are some cmake flags in it. Would make sense to adapt that and add our own optimization flags. Would also result in an installable pkg.
QtFm could be added to System menu. Also an application launcher shortcut on the panel.
Settings->Theme Settings does not work. Would be interesting to see in code what it calls internally.
Overall impression is early days but very usable.

Cool. I noticed that they're using just -O2 and -fPIC. My full cmake command line usually goes like this:
Code: Select all
cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=release -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS:STRING="-O2 -m64 -pipe -fPIC" -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr -DCMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR=lib64 ..
It calls qt5ct which doesn't exist.

Ok, that's https://sourceforge.net/projects/qt5ct/. Installed that and it works now. So the DE is theme-able
Yeah, noticed that too...

There is a livecd on the homepage of draco . It's based on alienbob's liveslak, pass root=root live=live . It can be used with persistence , base is slackware64-current.

https://www.dracolinux.org There is a symbolic picture of a cd , click it and you will be taken to Sourceforge to download. Relatively small ( 700mb) but has LibreOffice
and firefox . The desktop is only to play with, nothing really stable . But you have a slack64-current base . Compared with the draco.xzm+porteus , Porteus runs more

Then I will wait till it matures a bit more. Maybe / hopefully this gets better.
Cheers!
