TAIGA 0.4 is a huge step forward for the project,as the script is rewritten from the ground up to suppot menus.The codebase is also leaner and easier to maintain too.
Screenshots of the new script can be found here: https://imgur.com/gallery/ArctQX0
What about the old script?
The old script will be kept in the repositories for as long as it works,but contributions towards it won't be accepted.
As for configs made with the script,for technical reasons,they won't work with the new script.
Binary branches
The script relies on simple-tem-menu for the menu system,which is an extra dependency required for the script. For this reason there will be new binary branches containing the binaries that can be executed without python on the system.
The bin_linux branch contains the Linux binary, and bin_fbsd will come soon,containing the FreeBSD binary.
There are also scripts for compiling the binary,as well as setting up the base environment.
Wiki
Work on the wiki will begin,to detail the various aspects of the script.The wiki will primarily target the master branch,but other branches will be included.
Other changes
- Added standalone WMs to the script (to the extent they were supported on each distro)
- Better error-checking
- Fixes for some distros
