From 37262ced0eda06a45396d80a2afbe9afb8c1a91f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Xavier Karma Date: Fri, 6 Nov 2026 18:22:17 +0530 Subject: [PATCH] fix(web): the AUR packages are not published; stop saying Arch users can install them The Arch guide said Arch users can install Voculinux from the AUR while the install and home pages say the fork AUR packages are not published yet. The Arch description, intro, prerequisites and notes now say there is no AUR install path today. The Snap and AUR cards on the install and home pages no longer link to package pages that do not exist, and the nixos and flatpak pages stop listing the AUR as an option. --- web/src/app/flatpak/page.tsx | 5 +++-- web/src/app/install/[distro]/page.tsx | 10 +++++----- web/src/app/install/nixos/page.tsx | 5 +++-- web/src/app/install/page.tsx | 21 +++++++-------------- web/src/app/page.tsx | 21 +++++++-------------- 5 files changed, 25 insertions(+), 37 deletions(-) diff --git a/web/src/app/flatpak/page.tsx b/web/src/app/flatpak/page.tsx index b8f6f91..67faccf 100644 --- a/web/src/app/flatpak/page.tsx +++ b/web/src/app/flatpak/page.tsx @@ -457,8 +457,9 @@ flatpak update`} Need a different package?
