Every time the Pine64/Pinephone stuff gets mentioned I go looking for the Arch Linux ARM project mentions, and donation links. Previously they just avoid mentioning this, but most of the Manjaro ARM stuff couldn't happen without the tireless work of the Arch ARM developers.
I've had to repeatedly mention they shouldn't remove attribution from PKGBUILDs they take from Arch ARM.
https://gitlab.manjaro.org/manjaro-arm/packages/core/linux-rpi4/commit/d9f94b8fb3e6260c159763cba176cea2358573dd https://gitlab.manjaro.org/manjaro-arm/packages/core/linux-r...
Also begging for donations to Manjaro ARM, but with no mentions of Arch ARM. This was fixed with the old announcements, but it seems like any donations has been removed from current announcements.
> We will donate $10 per unit sold to the Manjaro development team. To learn more about this scheme please click here.
But where? Currently there is Manjaro the Company and Manjaro the Community. Both has separate funds, which is partially where the treasurer drama stems from. And is there any donations to the dependant projects?
This annoys me as most of the packaging efforts are on the Arch ARM side of things, not Manjaro. You can open any of their distributed ISOs and take a look at the packager information.
- MayeulC 6y ago> Every time the Pine64/Pinephone stuff gets mentioned You probably mean Manjaro/Pinephone or something like this, I initially thought you equated Pinephone with Manjaro. (hint for others: it is not, there are a various other compatible distros). I agree that Arch Arm upstream does a pretty good job, though that packaging job is 70% orthogonal to, say, alpine+postmarketos packaging :)
- brtln 6y agoI believe postmarketOS team closely collaborates with Alpine. It cannot be said about Manjaro, neither in relation to Arch or Arch ARM.
- unixhero 6y agoManjaro is downstream from Arch.

- brtln 6y agoThat's not my point. Being a downstream does not imply collaboration.
- MartijnBraam 6y agowe definetly try to upstream as much to Alpine as possible. Also postmarketOS basically maintains KDE in Alpine
