yep no idea what thats aboutnath wrote:I'm sure your scripts work, i must have forgot to configure something as pbuilder was trying to download a file containing the word "undefined" or something like that (can't remember). As for the debs, I was using a freshly installed Debian sid, so it was probably lacking packages, engines, themes or something else usually available in Mint. I'll try again later. Anyway, thanks for your work.
no, you do not need anything from ubuntu or mint period,
but i can see that installation can be a thorny issue for people not used to setting up various desktop environs
so will come up with a script to do it, i have just re-installed sid-kali so as i reinstall cinnamon will script the process up at the same time will add
a script to build cinnamon from release instead of direcly from git.
As said before i work exclusivly in a root environment, so if your desktop is full of permissions, you will have to add sudo everywhere
