Spritz removed? [Solved]

[dsparil]

I just did an equo world, and it prompted me to remove spritz since it's no longer in the repository. What's up?

I can't answer, but I can confirm the same thing happened to me.

Fount out. Run "equo install sulfur"

There was a name change.

[splippity]

yes then if ya want you can change you shortcut to reflect the change..... change spritz%U to sulfur%U and then edit the name of the shortcut.....

quick change really.... I didnt realize what was going on either till I stopped the world update in equo and opened spritz.... theres a notice explaining the rename and change.... but no further details.

[dsparil]

do "equo install sulfur"

It's very similar to spritz but much more responsive.

[splippity]

umm ya dont know if you can read but if you look above my post samething was just said.... Im showing how to change the shortcut people have on their desktop to open the new frontend.....

thanks

Start reading the notice board that comes with repository updates

In Sulfur check out this:

In the menu uncheck "Advanced Mode" this will give you the "Simple mode"
Its all the same but less options visable. Since most users don't want to see or use them anyway.

Hi all,
my situation is a bit different:

I did a world update on Friday night - CST (..or Saturday, I don't really recall) and there was no notice board announcing the changing name. I realized that Spritz wasn't there anymore and I re-installed from Portage.
Today I did another world update and this time I found the info regarding Sulfur.

Do I have to uninstall Spritz (from Portage) and then "equo install sulfur"?

Cheers,
mic

if you installed spritz via portage than yes, remove it as it is not the latest package manager. here is how I would do it.

Code: Select all

emerge -C spritz && equo install equo sulfur entropy
