This package provides Wayland protocols designed for use in wlroots (and other compositors).

xdg-desktop-portal is a portal front-end service for Flatpak and possibly other desktop containment frameworks. It works by exposing a series of D-Bus interfaces known as portals under a well-known name (org.freedesktop.portal.Desktop) and object path (/org/freedesktop/portal/desktop).

The portal interfaces include APIs for file access, opening URIs, printing and others.

Libinput is a library to handle input devices for display servers and other applications that need to directly deal with input devices.

Weston is the reference implementation of a Wayland compositor, and a useful compositor in its own right.

A Wayland compositor allows applications to render to a shared offscreen buffer using OpenGL ES. The compositor then culls the hidden parts and composes the final output. A Wayland compositor is essentially a multiplexer to the KMS/DRM Linux kernel devices.

PyXDG is a collection of implementations of freedesktop.org standards in Python.

Elogind is the systemd project's "logind" service, extracted out as a separate project. Elogind integrates with PAM to provide the org.freedesktop.login1 interface over the system bus, allowing other parts of a the system to know what users are logged in, and where.

Exempi is an implementation of the Extensible Metadata Platform (XMP), which enables embedding metadata in PDF and image formats.

MalContent implements parental controls support which can be used by applications to filter or limit the access of child accounts to inappropriate content.

This package provides a straightforward implementation of the XDG Base Directory Specification.

This package provides a Hyprland implementation of wayland-scanner, in and for C++.

This package provides a backend implementation for xdg-desktop-portal that allows using your preferred terminal file manager as file chooser in other applications.

Telepathy logger is a headless observer client that logs information received by the Telepathy framework. It features pluggable backends to log different sorts of messages in different formats.

Displaying and dumping information on Direct Rendering Manager devices.

This package contains a number of commandline utilities for use inside Flatpak sandboxes and other containers, like guix shell --container. They work by talking to portals. Currently, there is flatpak-spawn for running commands in sandboxes as well as xdg-open and xdg-email, which are compatible with the well-known scripts of the same name.

Plymouth is an application that runs very early in the boot process and that provides a graphical boot animation while the boot process happens in the background. You are not supposed to install this on your own, it is only useful with system integration.

Libinput is a library to handle input devices for display servers and other applications that need to directly deal with input devices.

This package provides a backend implementation for xdg-desktop-portal which uses GTK+ and various pieces of GNOME infrastructure, such as the org.gnome.Shell.Screenshot or org.gnome.SessionManager D-Bus interfaces.

ModemManager is a DBus-activated daemon which controls mobile broadband (2G/3G/4G) devices and connections. Whether built-in devices, USB dongles, bluetooth-paired telephones, or professional RS232/USB devices with external power supplies, ModemManager is able to prepare and configure the modems and setup connections with them.

Wayland-Protocols contains Wayland protocols that add functionality not available in the Wayland core protocol. Such protocols either add completely new functionality, or extend the functionality of some other protocol either in Wayland core, or some other protocol in wayland-protocols.

cChardet is a character encoding detector, written in Python, that binds to the C library uchardet to increase performance.

GNU FreeIPMI is a collection of in-band and out-of-band IPMI software in accordance with the IPMI v1.5/2.0 specification. These programs provide a set of interfaces for platform management. Common functionality includes sensor monitoring, system event monitoring, power control and serial-over-LAN.

GNU FriBidi is an implementation of the Unicode Bidirectional Algorithm. This algorithm is used to properly display text in left-to-right or right-to-left ordering as necessary.

bidiv is a simple utility for converting logical-Hebrew input to visual-Hebrew output. This is useful for reading Hebrew mail messages, viewing Hebrew texts, etc. It was written for Hebrew but Arabic (or other BiDi languages) should work equally well.

NcFTP Client (or just NcFTP) is a set of command-line programs to access File Transfer Protocol (FTP) servers. This includes ncftp, an interactive FTP browser, as well as non-interactive commands such as ncftpput and ncftpget.
