FreeBSD The Power to Serve

Pantheon desktop on FreeBSD

Contact: Olivier Duchateau <duchateau.olivier@gmail.com>

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:

Open tasks

  • Improve documentation.

  • Continue to work on user settings.
