Build and Install the Latest Version

Debian/Ubuntu based systems

There are two methods, these themes can be installed/used on a Debian/Ubuntu based system. First, download and unzip the source package using:

wget https://github.com/mamolinux/sucharu/archive/refs/heads/master.zip
unzip master.zip
cd sucharu-master

1. Option 1: Manually copying necessary files to root (/). For that, follow the steps below:

   1. To build the themes, run:

      make clean
      make all
      

      from the /path/to/repo in a terminal. It will create the GTK, Metacity, XFWM and Cinnamon themes in usr/share/themes, and Plank themes in usr/share/plank/themes.

   2. Copy the contents of usr/ to /usr/:

      sudo cp -R usr /
      

   3. To build gnome-shell, use meson as,

      meson builddir
      meson compile -C builddir
      meson install -C builddir
      

2. Option 2: Build debian packages and install it. To build a debian package on your own:

   1. from the /path/to/repo run:

      dpkg-buildpackage --no-sign
      

      This will create sucharu-theme*.deb packages at ../path/to/repo.
   2. Install the debian packages using

      sudo dpkg -i *.deb
      sudo apt install -f
      

   After it is installed, set the themes from your distro's theme manager or use the Theme Manager to change themes automatically after certain periods.
