There used to be also packages on COPR for Fedora and
RHEL/CentOS/Scientific Linux built from David Cantrell's SPEC file. But
recently, the repository was empty, indicating that the build had
failed. Now, it has disappeared from COPR.
I have tried to build CDE 2.3.2 from that SPEC file. Although the build
succeeds, the installation in BUILDROOT fails. The reason is that
InstallCDE instead of installing the desktop under the
BUILDROOT/{usr,etc,var} directories attempts to install it under
/usr,/etc,/var as if no options had been passed. Trying to create a tar
file of the desktop also fails. I don't know if it is a shell issue (say
the rpmbuild command uses /bin/bash instead of /bin/ksh to run
installCDE) or if there is an issue in the script itself. I could send
the log if necessary.
Previously, it was possible to create a RPM from the same SPEC file also
for PCLinuxOS.
If the issue with installCDE is solved, it should be reasonably feasible
to adapt the SPEC file of David Cantrell to other RPM based Linux
distros such as OpenSuse, AltLinux or Mageia. The problem would be to
get the generated RPMs accepted in their official repositories or at
least in repositories indexed by repology.

Hi.
By looking at https://repology.org/project/cdesktopenv/versions I see
that CDE is currently only packaged for Arch Linux, FreeBSD and NixOS
operating systems.
Are there are plans for adding CDE to other systems like Debian?
Thanks.
