The Pantheon desktop environment is designed for elementary OS. It builds on GNOME technologies (such as Mutter, GTK 3 and 4) and it is written in Vala. The goal is to have a new desktop for users.
13.1-RELEASE or higher is required, because several core components depend on deskutils/xdg-desktop-portal.
The repository contains Mk/Uses framework
elementary.mk
, official applications, and curated
ports which depend on x11-toolkits/granite.
Since the previous report, we have been updating its related ports, especially:
Power manager plugins for top panel (wingpanel) and control center (switchboard) are finished.
A new switchboard plugin is also available, net/switchboard-plug-sharing. Ported Rygel, GNOME UPnP/DLNA services.
Submitted other patches for low level libraries such as:
-
print/cups-pk-helper update to 0.2.7 required by print/switchboard-plus-printers
-
devel/libgee update to 0.20.6 heavily used by the desktop
-
sysutils/polkit update to 122 (D37137)
-
sysutils/accountsservice update to 22.08.8 (D37679).
Open tasks

Improve documentation.

Continue to work on user settings.
