Budgie initially developed as the default desktop environment for the former Evolve OS. Since the 10.6.x releases, improvements have been made to be "agnostic".
It is built on top of GNOME technologies such as GTK >= 3, GLib, Mutter, libpeas.
The goal is to have a new desktop for end users. I have submitted 2 reviews (D37224 and D37286 for The FreeBSD Porter’s Handbook) so committers can import it.
These reviews include:
-
Mk/Uses framework
budgie.mk
-
new virtual category (budgie)
-
6 applications
-
icon theme
x11-themes/tela-icon-theme
.
During this quarter, I have also submitted several patches (related to this desktop) especially:
-
x11/gnome-terminal
update to 3.44.2 bug #267928 -
x11-wm/mutter
update to 42.6 bug #267899 -
x11-toolkits/libwnck3
update to 40.1 bug #267898.
These bugs are also still open:
-
devel/libpeas
bug #267420 -
sysutils/gnome-settings-daemon
bug #265107.
