# Hyprland Installation Method Options
|
|
|
|
## Overview
|
|
|
|
The `install.sh` script has been updated to support **two installation methods**:
|
|
|
|
1. **Build from Source** (Original method)
|
|
2. **Install from Pre-built Packages** (New method - faster)
|
|
|
|
## Configuration
|
|
|
|
### Setting the Package Source Location
|
|
|
|
At the top of `install.sh`, you'll find this variable:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
DEB_PACKAGES_SOURCE="/mnt/nas/Projects/Jak/debian-pkg/build/debs"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**To change the package location:**
|
|
- Modify `DEB_PACKAGES_SOURCE` to point to your pre-built .deb package directory
|
|
- Can be a local path or network share
|
|
- Leave empty to always build from source
|
|
|
|
### Current Configuration
|
|
|
|
**Current source location:** `/mnt/nas/Projects/Jak/debian-pkg/build/debs`
|
|
|
|
**Available packages:** 59 .deb files
|
|
- All Hyprland components (0.52.2)
|
|
- All dependencies (utilities, graphics, cursors, etc.)
|
|
- 9 Hyprland plugins
|
|
- Debug symbols and development files
|
|
|
|
## Installation Flow
|
|
|
|
### Automatic Method Selection
|
|
|
|
When you run `install.sh`:
|
|
|
|
1. **Environment Check**: Script checks if packages are available at `DEB_PACKAGES_SOURCE`
|
|
2. **User Prompt**: If packages found, you're asked to choose:
|
|
- **YES** → Install from pre-built packages (faster, ~5-10 minutes)
|
|
- **NO** → Build from source (slower, ~1-2 hours)
|
|
|
|
3. **Execution**: Script runs the selected method
|
|
|
|
### Build from Source Method
|
|
|
|
If you choose "from source" or no packages are available:
|
|
- Runs all the original install scripts
|
|
- Builds each component from GitHub source
|
|
- Takes significantly longer but gives latest upstream code
|
|
|
|
### Build from Packages Method
|
|
|
|
If you choose "pre-built packages":
|
|
1. Validates package directory exists and contains .deb files
|
|
2. Counts available packages
|
|
3. Installs all .deb files using `dpkg -i`
|
|
4. Fixes any missing dependencies with `apt-get install -f`
|
|
5. Completes much faster than source builds
|
|
|
|
## Usage Examples
|
|
|
|
### To use current pre-built packages (on test network):
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
cd ~/Projects/Jak/Debian-Hyprland
|
|
./install.sh
|
|
# When prompted, select YES to use pre-built packages
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### To always build from source (ignore packages):
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Edit install.sh and change:
|
|
DEB_PACKAGES_SOURCE=""
|
|
# Then run:
|
|
./install.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### To use packages from a different location:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Edit install.sh and change:
|
|
DEB_PACKAGES_SOURCE="/path/to/your/packages"
|
|
# Then run:
|
|
./install.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Building Your Own Packages
|
|
|
|
To generate pre-built packages:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
cd /mnt/nas/Projects/Jak/debian-pkg
|
|
./build_all_final.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This creates all 59 .deb packages in `build/debs/`
|
|
|
|
## Package Versions
|
|
|
|
All pre-built packages match upstream versions:
|
|
|
|
| Package | Version |
|
|
|---------|---------|
|
|
| hyprland | 0.52.2 |
|
|
| hyprutils | 0.10.4 |
|
|
| hyprgraphics | 0.4.0 |
|
|
| aquamarine | 0.10.0 |
|
|
| hyprtoolkit | 0.4.0 |
|
|
| (and 11 more) | (see VERSION_VERIFICATION.txt) |
|
|
|
|
## Benefits of Each Method
|
|
|
|
### Build from Source
|
|
- ✅ Ensures latest upstream code
|
|
- ✅ Custom compilation options possible
|
|
- ❌ Takes 1-2 hours
|
|
- ❌ Requires all build tools and deb-src enabled
|
|
|
|
### Build from Packages
|
|
- ✅ Fast installation (5-10 minutes)
|
|
- ✅ Pre-tested and validated builds
|
|
- ✅ No build tools required
|
|
- ✅ Works from network share
|
|
- ❌ Fixed versions (no custom compilation)
|
|
|
|
## Troubleshooting
|
|
|
|
### "No .deb files found" error
|
|
|
|
**Solution:**
|
|
1. Check `DEB_PACKAGES_SOURCE` path exists
|
|
2. Verify .deb files are in that location
|
|
3. Check file permissions
|
|
4. Run `ls $DEB_PACKAGES_SOURCE/*.deb` to verify
|
|
|
|
### Package installation fails
|
|
|
|
**Solution:**
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Manually fix dependencies:
|
|
sudo apt-get install -f -y
|
|
|
|
# Or reinstall specific package:
|
|
sudo dpkg -i /path/to/package.deb
|
|
sudo apt-get install -f -y
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Mixed dependency errors
|
|
|
|
**Solution:** Ensure all interdependent packages are installed together:
|
|
```bash
|
|
sudo dpkg -i $DEB_PACKAGES_SOURCE/*.deb
|
|
sudo apt-get install -f -y
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Network Share Access
|
|
|
|
If packages are on a NAS/network share:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Mount the share (if not already mounted):
|
|
sudo mount -t nfs nas:/path/to/share /mnt/nas
|
|
|
|
# Or modify DEB_PACKAGES_SOURCE to your network path:
|
|
DEB_PACKAGES_SOURCE="//nas/Projects/Jak/debian-pkg/build/debs"
|
|
```
