Use our knowledge and create your own icon theme combo – use github to saveguard your work – create your repository

this is a “possible” workflow article

In this video we show you the workflow how to combine different icons to have a new theme altogether.

We could have created my new themes in the video – we ended up creating ArcoLinux-Candy-Beauty-Tela.

https://github.com/erikdubois/ArcoLinux-Candy-Beauty-Tela

or

git clone https://github.com/erikdubois/ArcoLinux-Candy-Beauty-Tela

Use the inherits line.

Use github or others.

How to create an Arch Linux repository to install the package with sudo pacman -S …

[nemesis_repo]
SigLevel = Optional TrustedOnly

You can put anything on your repo

Here we show you how easy it is to add packages from the AUR to your repo

How to add your own repo to /etc/pacman.conf with scripts (not manually)

We change the arcolinux-nemesis scripts to do the work for us. 
Automatically.

Use scripts and walk away.

https://github.com/erikdubois/nemesis_repo

Let us test our new arcolinux-nemesis script and install the themes from that repo

Create your own repo, put the packages on their you like and install them.

We rename our packages to edu-… – PKGBUILD tutorial

When we have a user base, we do not want them to run into issues.

We want that our newly named package will replace the old package with a simple update.

Pacman can do that. The code for that is “Replace“.

You have seen this before. The user gets a question to replace x with y and a (Y/n) at the end.
