FACTS ABOUT THIS PROJECT:

The core dataset can be viewed and tooled to your wish and desire with command setupTermuxArch bloom which should download all the components of TermuxArch into directory HOME/TermuxArchBloom in the Termux HOME directory. The command setupTermuxArch bloom is much like the command setupTermuxArch manual; The bloom option is more expansive than setupTermuxArch manual which is primarily used for mirror selection, and can be used to tune the PRoot init statement. Bloom is a much more verbose option in that it provides the CLI user the entire code dataset. Please feel free to use the commands setupTermuxArch h[e[lp]] for additional information how to use setupTermuxArch.

Files setupTermuxArch.{bash,sh} are held for backward compatibility; Please reference file setupTermuxArch as the chosen install file if aid and assistance be through sharing insight about this Arch Linux in a Termux PRoot QEMU container project which can be used on a smartphone, smartTV, tablet, wearable and more. File setupTermuxArch is earmarked as the install file name for this project.

File setupTermuxArch downloads as files setupTermuxArch.[bin,\ \(1\),\ \(2\),etc...]' through Internet browsers into Android Downloads on smartphone and Arch Linux in Termux PRoot QEMU can be installed directly from this file in Android with this command bash ~/storage/downloads/setupTermuxArch and similar which may also check whether there is a newer version automatically since the time it was downloaded. If there is a newer version, this file will self update. If this updating process went smoothly, this file will restart the process that was initially initiated by the user.

These files setupTermuxArch[.{bash,sh}] will NOT selfupdate to the most recent version published if they are used inside their git repository; You can use commands git pull && git submodule update --init --remote --recursive and pullTermuxArchMods.bash to update to the newest version published.

Very many hardy thank yous to contributors who are helping and have worked very hard to make this open source resource better! Please accept a wholehearted THANK YOU for using our open source product!

termuxarch's Issues

chronic fakeroot issue with makepkg

Every time I try to install any tool e.g. "fakeroot-tcp"
I became depressed because of this 😢

It gives me this even after updating termuxarch and trying many solutions:

Entering fakeroot environment...
fakeroot, while creating message channels: Function not implemented
This may be due to a lack of SYSV IPC support.
fakeroot: error while starting the `faked' daemon.
kill: usage: kill [-s sigspec | -n signum | -sigspec] pid | jobspec ... or kill -l [sigspec]

Is there any solution yet?

Libzim package request

Hello
This package (libzim) is very important for me.
Could you guide me how to install it in your amazing system, or make it available for archlinuxaarch64, please?

Thanks in advance

root user login starts up arch proot without switching to /root directory

First of all being very new to this project , i wish i had found it earlier . Thanks to everyone who have contributed to this awesome project

1. i have added a user , if i login as that user startarch login user it rightly takes me to the home directory ie /home/user
   but in its default root user login , it should use /root directory as its startup working directory ( echo $HOME rightly returns /root ) but it doesn't seem to work as intended . On startup after startarch is ran, it simply logs into arch proot being in the existing directory ie termux home . It should ideally switch to /root directory as its the default home dir .

2. Also can you please change the default location of bin folder and that systemctl file from home directory to somewhere else .It is better to have clean and only user generated files in home directory ( /root or /home/user ) . Maybe add it somwhere in the rootfs directory but not in home directory .That way those files would also be more safe and avoid getting deleted mistakenly while general usage.

3. If i copy any folder from my device's sdcard to arch home directory using termux , i can access it properly
   cp -a /sdcard/Download /home/user
   But if i copy-paste the same folder using my device's file manager and try to cd to that directory in termux - it says operation not permitted .i tried changing folder permissions to 0755 but to no avail
   If i wondering if there could a workaround to overcome this restriction , pasting content through file manager is definitely lot easier so would be good to have it working

4. Lastly can you please specify how to update the TermuxArch properly . i have the https://github.com/TermuxArch/TermuxArch/blob/master/updateTermuxArch.bash script but when should i execute it ? In termux natively or inside arch proot ?

spacemacs with latest TermuxArch

Unfortunately upgrading TermuxArch to get the termux-* scripts has left me with a broken primary use case, namely. I can no longer run emacs/spacemacs (Update: This is probably due to my transition from mixed Termux+TermuxArch to pure TermuxArch in fact).

The fix has already been discussed here:
nix-community/nix-on-droid#12

But alas AFAICT this regression hasn't yet been fixed in proot.

WARNING: Could not connect to systemd: Failed to connect to socket /run/dbus/system_bus_socket: directory or file not exist

Very probably, many of us ave seen this error when run some app by using Termux. To avoid those errors. I AM afraid, that complete Linux kernel would had to be used.
Next complex science fiction related possibility.
What if somebody would compile ArchLinux kernel which would only contain system Bus support module and code and nothing else. And what if so little kernel would be executed by using Qemu from running ArchLinux by using Proot? But there would be more complex technique. Recode Proot so every related system bus code would be directed to some communication pipe between Qemu and running little kernel with only system bus support and running app.
This spec ial technique if it could be implemented may be a big revolution on future.

Seamonkey is very probably compiled without dictionaries support

Dear specialists,

I AM strongly afraid, that severe programmers issue have forced The Seamonkey AArch64 Bit packager to compile Seamonkey without dictionary support. As A result, even if user install Seamonkey dictionary addon correctly when using Mozilla official WeB site, Seamonkey do not support dictionaryes.

Please does somebody of us have A contact with professional, who is responsible for Seamonkey packaging for AArch64 Bit platform?
If yes. Could this kind man or team of people try to debate with Seamonkey developers to find some solution how to compile and build Seamonkey with support for dictionaryes?

If The problem is not caused by The fact, that Seamonkey compilation process excludes dictionaryes support, who of us would try to debug The real cause of this issue?
I Am ready to debug if somebody will be so kind and would write Me some instructions how to find The cause, why dictionaryes are not supported.

how to backup my termux arch installation?

I need to migrate my termux arch installation to other
a device. Is there any way to backup & restore termux & termux arch installation, I checked au it seems like it only backups packages not the configuration files.

TeXworks not saving conf in proot, migrated from Termux issues

Using Arch Linux ARM in proot, device not rooted. Android 9, Samsung Galaxy Tab A (WiFi, no phone). LXDE GUI. Works very well.

TeXworks functions correctly, with exception: It can read, but not write or modify, its configuration file at ~/.config/TUG/TeXworks.conf

Possibly also applies to other things in .config.

I contacted the TeXworks developer. No problem seen on ordinary Linux. Also tried building source code in Arch proot. It builds and works, but with same exception.

No error messages anywhere.

GUESS: May have something to do with interaction beteen proot and qt5. The .conf file uses qt5 methods for write. Unfortunately, I am not enough of a programmer to know.

If due to proot qt5, then the issue may affect other programs using qt5.

How to remove arch?

How do i remove the arch install + wget arch stuff?

perl and its components broken

This is exclusive to this repository. I installed a fresh copy twice and tested it on both repos (this one and the /SDRausty/TermuxArch). Perl and many packages that depend on it like po4a and cpan are broken (binaries missing).
On the other repo, it works perfectly fine, but on this repo it is failing. I'm not sure of the cause. Steps to reproduce :

• clone this repo and install TermuxArch
• install po4a and perl (perl is optional since it's installed by default)
• try executing po4a or cpan and it returns error bash: cpan: command not found

Note that I already tried this with the stable repo too and these work normally. What commit do you think caused this regression?

How to build Gradio without yay by using existing preconfigured aarch64 repositories

Even though Gradio search station engine do not work, because radio-browser.info WEB portal have been changed, so Vala code is helpless to work with changed WEB site to provide search results, Gradio would be perfect and fully accessible solution for visually impaired user and if somebody advanced Vala expert could take some time and if this expert could adapt Gradio source to reflect todays and also future radio-browser.info WEB domain updates,, this radio player could be interesting alternative. to other players available.
Vala knowledge even would allow somebody to implement recording capabilities. It is possible to legally clone original Gradio repo to someones Github account and Gradio development can continue, MR Haecker will very probably not be engry because of it, because we are living in The world of full opensource freedom.

So how to install and build Gradio?
First of all
pacman -S desktop-file-utils gobject-introspection gst-plugins-bad gst-plugins-base gst-plugins-good gst-plugins-ugly gstreamer json-glib libgee libsoup sqlite3 appstream-glib gettext yelp-tools gst-libav vala
Then install git and clone The repo by using The following command.

git clone https://github.com/haecker-felix/Gradio.git
meson --prefix=/usr build

ninja -C build

ninja -C build install
Gradio could be normally executable and usable.
Try to search for AN station. YOu will very probably not get any results. If you will use mate-terminal gnome-terminal or if you will simply watch output generated by Vala by using normal Termux window, you will see The error. The .vala file source name and The line number. So Vala expert could even try to recode The corresponding source file to reflect latest
radio-browser.info
WEB page changes so build in search engine could work.
It is not dangerous system driver or kernel module modiffication so there are safe ways to debug and experiment. It is normal user app and Vala has reach run-time error engine and including C libraryes too.
I will inform you about my fight with Shortwave. Thanks to Rust community, which are very kind and helpfull, I had A chance to build and compile to binary form. But it was not been enough. I had experienced issues with Libhandy library.

Does it build successfully? Does the po4a binary exist?

• Refresh from the latest commit. Run keys as root. Restart termux and log in as user. Do sudo pacman -Syu
• Run sudo pacman -Rncs fakeroot-tcp if it exists (It used to build directly with fakeroot and patched makepkg but I wanted to retest building fakeroot-tcp using fakeroot which used to work earlier)
• Optionally run sudo pacman -S fakeroot cd ~ git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/yay.git cd yay && makepkg -si. Check if it builds with fakeroot
• Run cd ~ && git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/fakeroot-tcp.git && cd fakeroot-tcp && makepkg -si --noprepare.
  Does it build successfully? Does the po4a binary exist? I'm not sure if an update caused this or a regression due to a commit.

5. Other attempts

1. replace sftp-server

Termux can open SFTP server, I successfully logged in, I doubt whether it is the problem of sftp-server in arch, so I copied the sftp-server of Termux to the root directory of arch, and made a replacement, but only the wrong number became 127, so I think it is not the problem of sftp-server

2. add user sftp

• give the permisson 755 to ChrootDirectory,
• change sshd_configuration
• chang the sftp password

[root21:11~]$ tail -n 1 /etc/passwd
sftp:x:1001:1001::/home/sftp:/bin/bash

[root16:21~]$ ls -la /home/sftp

Can PRoot be used to access a Linux distribution from external storage such as an SD card?

@JanuszChmiel created an issue at termux/proot#50 Can Proot be used to access Linux distribution from external storage such as SD card #50

Answer; It is possible to deposit a substantial portion of the system to external micro sdcard. However, it is probably not worth the effort for a number of reasons including the fact that the overall saving in space is not that great. Also, the system that is partially installed in the external sdcard is almost impossible to update.

install doc links to SDRausty repo

this is confusing. and i think it's not intended. this is similar to what i saw in BuildAPKs.

TermuxArch/TermuxArch links to an install doc that says to clone SDRausty/TermuxArch

i notice, as of right now, this repo was updated 9 days ago, but the SDRausty/TermuArch repo was updated 25 days ago.

i think it would be best to make the doc link to the same repo, not across repos.

i also think it would help to clarify, somewhere, what the difference between repos is. like, is one a dev repo and one a stable repo? or is one just lagging?

Implementing QEMU

EDIT: This command setupTermuxArch q[emu] [customdir] supersedes the struck out notes below. The command setupTermuxArch h[elp] provides help information.

QEMU has along with other features been implemented for years. Unfortunately, it is still under documented and still awaiting full implementation. There are two implied references to QEMU in the help; setupTermuxArch h:

>[./path/systemimage.tar.gz [customdir]] Install directory argument is optional. Network install can be substituted by copying systemimage.tar.gz and systemimage.tar.gz.md5 files with 'setupTermuxArch ./[path/]systemimage.tar.gz' and 'setupTermuxArch /absolutepath/systemimage.tar.gz'.
> [systemimage.tar.gz [customdir]] Install directory argument is optional. Network install can be substituted by copying systemimage.tar.gz and systemimage.tar.gz.md5 files with 'setupTermuxArch systemimage.tar.gz'.`

The next steps should be obvious:
1) find system image of desired architecture,
2) download image,
3) use one of the copy image commands.

These next steps might not be so obvious to all.
Especially the newcomer, what is QEMU?

QEMU is a generic and open source machine emulator and virtualizer.

What does that mean might be a question? Don't worry read on. The answer is obvious. Install QEMU in Termux to activate this feature:

[u0_a9112:01TermuxArch]$ pkg list-available |f qemu

933:qemu-common/stable 1:4.2.1 arm

945:qemu-user-x86_64/stable 1:4.2.1 arm
946:qemu-utils/stable 1:4.2.1 arm

You can also attempt to build these qemu packages with the yay command. The last step might seem confusing. I think it is because the step is overly simple.

$ wc -l ~/arch/var/binds/fbindexample.prs
11
$ cat ~/arch/var/binds/fbindexample.prs

So I will not waste space here other than to say that using command setupTermuxArch re after reading file (wc -w 128) fbindexample.prs should open up any architecture you choose to install in your smartphone, smatTV, tablet and wearable. Once this issue is resolved the TermuxArch end user will not even know about this step, unless they chose to explore the TermuxArch code.

I would also like to add that command setupTermuxArch b can help with more than just with this issue here:

j=0 ; for i in $(wc -l ~/TermuxArchBloom/*|cut -d"/" -f 1|head -n 11);do j="$(($i + $j))" ; done ; echo $j ; unset i j
5330
j=0;for i in $(wc -w ~/TermuxArchBloom/*|cut -d"/" -f 1|head -n 11);do j="$(($i + $j))";done;echo $j ;unset i j
31341

This is the entire data set presented for your review. One tap QEMU is still a couple of steps away as of today. Comments regarding the data set are welcome here, especially how to implement one tap option QEMU easily. The goal of the data set is more robustness with fewer lines if possible. Human legibility of the code is paramount, along with execution speed and the end user experience.

BuildAPKs/buildAPKs#13 (comment)

Hello

Nmen

Expanding setupTermuxArch so visually impaired users can install Orca screen reader (assistive technology) and have VNC support added easily.

Let's expand setupTermuxArch so users can install Orca screen reader (assistive technology) and also have VNC support added easily.

_Originally posted by @JanuszChmiel in issue SDRausty/termux-archlinux#66:

Because ArchLinux is very matured Linux distro with many many modern up to date packages,it is time to extend yours script to directly support visually impaired users. And because I have been overloaded you about shared memory, it is time to show, that I can also participate by adding some important commands to you.
The option for setuptermuxarch would be Orca
When visually impaired user would start yours script with Orca word, The needed Bash script code should do The following thinks
From Termux side, no from ArchLinux Guest perspective
apt update
apt upgradeapt install pulseaudio sox
apt clean
Then The script should do The following: add those lines to The termux profile script
pulseaudio --start --exit-idle-time=-1
pacmd load-module module-native-protocol-tcp auth-ip-acl=127.0.0.1 auth-anonymous=1

Script should start Pulseaudio immediately after The code have been added to The script. It is important to determine, if it is possible to add those two lines one by one or if is it necessary to add some other command to ensure, that Pulseaudio will work.

From The perspective of Arch Linux guest system setup script will finish The upgrading process The code should install The following packages.
tigervnc
mate
mate-extra
orca
pulseaudio-alsa
espeak-ng
The script should add The following lines to /etc/profile
export DISPLAY=:0
unset SESSION_MANAGER
unset DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS
export PULSE_SERVER=127.0.0.1

The /usr/bin/mate
script should contain The following routine.

vncserver -kill :0
vncserver -extension MIT-SHM -localhost -geometry 1024x768 -depth 24 -name remote-desktop :0 -SecurityTypes=None

Then I do not know how to auto start mate-session automatically. How to detect, that tigervnc have allready finish its initialisation job.
Mate-session contain extension which is older than 1 month which do not allow to run it by typing mate-session &

If C code detect that & have been used, mate/session suspend all its sub processes. This unsoft feature have not been presented in March or April.
Problems to resolve.

1. when all packages related to Orca support will be installed, script would had to enable assistive technologyes support and add some setting to gconf so Orca would had to run automatically when Mate-session will be loaded to RAM.
   Because Mate have been designed mainly for desktop computers, so he crucial hot keys such as ALT+F1 or ALT+F2 are not usable from Android. Scan codes differs. And visually impaired user can not use those important hot keys from Mate desktop to run Orca.
   The solution is to run mate-control-center and use hot keys settings to change The crucial keys.
   The very well accessible Android VNC client is BVNC Pro or free.
   I have bought BVNC Pro since author have prepared fully accessible GUI even with accessible keyboard and app is very fast and support hot keys combination including CAPSLOCk or others and it is very important for Orca screen readers users.

Pulseaudio-alsa is needed to enable mate sound effects. SOund effects will not work without this extension. Espeak package also depend on pulseaudio-alsa. If this feature is not presented, speech-dispatcher 0.9.1 will refuse to work with Espeak. Espeak is currently Theonlyone reliable international engine for producing speech with Orca. Because work reliably also on The speeds higher than 75 when setting it with Orca preferences.

Tigervnc support as A onlyone XVNC solution for Linux reliably combinations such as SHIFT+TAB or TAB.
My real goal is to use ARchLinux in combination with Termux to prepare fully automated solution which will allow visually impaired Android Linux users to run Mate and Orca.
Mate-power-manager must be removed.
It has issues with chroot environments and some C library display errors with long Hexadecimal number list and it is not welcomed.
FOrtunately, pacman allow us to remove this
pacman -R mate-power-manager
Seamonkey is perfectly accessible and support WEB browsing, HTML editor, E-mail client and IRC chat and address book in one process.
Many mate apps are working including archive manager, Caja. There are some issues with Mate, since mate-session communicates with system bus, as A result, console coutput contain many error because of it, but those errors are not fatal and Mate run reliably.

The automated solution would be derivated from Termux Alpine or from No root Debian.
No root debian contain Xserver XSDL and thanks to unsoft AOSP modules in Android newer than 6, ckeyboards ahe very unsupported.
This is The reason why I have started to use vnc protocol instead.

sdkmanager "emulator" missing from TermuxArch but is available on normal Arch Linux installs

Steps to reproduce

TermuxArch

Install TermuxArch on Termux.

Inside /root/ of Arch or Inside /data/data/com.termux/files/home:

Create and enter android_sdk

Download cmdline-tools

wget https://dl.google.com/android/repository/commandlinetools-linux-7583922_latest.zip

unzip it.

Find the sdkmanager inside cmdline-tools/tools/bin
(Note: Create tools directory inside cmdline-tools that we unzipped and copy all contents to tools)

On termux:

Run sh sdkmanager --list : You will not find any emulator listed.
Similarly, do sh sdkmanager emulator : You will not be able to download emulator as its not listed.

For normal Arch Linux on Laptop

Download cmdline-tools as above and do run the same steps as above. You will see we are able to see emulator listed and able to downloaded with sdkmanager.

Additional Notes

Why is it working differently and is there a way to make sdkmanager work normally on TermuxArch? That is it should have all packages listed of sdkmanager that are seen on normal Arch Linux

Torture Testing the new `--sysvipc` PRoot option with QEMU.

Torture Testing the new --sysvipc PRoot option with QEMU.

Thank you all for keeping the Termux project on course over the years! After years of using Termux on Android, I still have difficulty comprehending my new work environment: no desktop needed! The newly implemented --sysvipc PRoot option is amazing:

I have very very positive experience with newly shared memory implementation which work directly in Proot binary module. Screen reader Orca work much more stable and I can for example. Switch to The desktop by pressing CTRL}}+ALT+d much more faster even if mate-terminal display many lines when some app is being compiled. I can also interrupt speech very often while building some app without issues at all. When Proot shared memory function have not been implemented, it have caused issues. Orca have frozen.

Originally posted by @JanuszChmiel in TermuxArch/TermuxArch#34 (comment)

Termux sometimes crashes completely when working with this new command: the makeaurhelpers command. At times, this command crashes Termux when using PRoot with QEMU to build Arch Linux packages on device.

Steps to reproduce a crash:

1. Install Arch Linux in Termux PRoot with QEMU emulation; The command setupTermuxArch v will automatically choose the optimal architecture to emulate with QEMU for arm smartphones. For x86_64 smartphones the command setupTermuxArch q can be used.
2. Once installed, run the command makeaurhelpers in multiple Termux sessions (at least four). This is a very labor intensive command as it downloads source code, parses it and attempts to build Arch Linux aur packages.

Steps how to find out more information about how this crash develops are welcome. I am not sure how to collect the crash data as Termux stops functioning.

fakeroot version 24 is no longer available

the makefakeroot script (and associated package) tries to pull version 24.1 from the debian repository, however, that version is no longer available. There is a version 25 available, however, that version no longer needs the silence-dlerror.patch file since it's already included.

Today's up to date tigervnc can not be started on aarch64 architecture

When I have performed ArchLinux upgrade by typing
pacman -Syu as root user
I have got tigervnc update.
Unfortunately, I can not run tigervnc at all.
Because I Am getting The following error.

vncserver: Couldn't find suitable Xsession

I do not know, if is it new revolutionar new approach from Tigervnc developers, which will allow only specific Xsessions? Or if there is An bug from developers or some hydden problem.
If is it new revolutionar version which will not allow us to run Tigervnc it will be necessary to downgrade to The previously functioning version. If yes, how to find it and I will have to build it.
I have even opened bug on Tigervnc Github page to get An assistance what has happened with Tigervnc when this new version have been released.

securing sshd with 2FA from google-authenticator-libpam fails unless the 'no_strict_owner' option is used

I was only able to get the libpam-google-authenticator package working for 2fa ssh only after I added the following line of code to /etc/pam.d/sshd:

auth required pam_google_authenticator.so no_strict_owner.

I tried different combinations of the PAM module options listed here and only got it working with no_strict_owner. I'm opening and closing this issue here because I don't believe it's a bug with Termux, PRoot, Arch Linux ARM, or even the PAM module. It's probably something to do with PRoot and file ownership/permissions. Closing the issue as there's a workaround and the goal here was to guide users of libpam-google-authenticator in a PRoot toward a working config.

public apologisation addressed to MR Rausty

Dear MR Rausty,
I would like to publicly apologize you that I have overloaded you with many opened issues and I Am aware, that I have made many errors including. I have opened several issues for A same topics. I have overloaded you with making more and more desktop environments to work from chroot environment. And I have overloaded you. I Am offering you a more nice approach from you for a following days and months.
I will finally stop opening accessibility related issues, I will always try to solve them with The corresponding packages authors. Because I know, that you can not solve 1000thinks at The same time.
If you will need help to test something, please let Me know on A corresponding issue which you will open. Or in A corresponding commit.
I Am ery sorry again and I Am also publicly apologizing all available users and members here for my wrong behaviour and approach to MRS Rausty complex work.

Missing dependencies (bsdtar and proot) cause setupTermuxArch.sh failure

setupTermuxArch.sh depends on bsdtar and proot. They are not included in a vanilla termux installation. Either install them in setupTermuxArch.sh or list them as required dependencies in the installation guide.

How to get more optimization?

I'm using termux arch with xfce4, performance has been low, especially that of browsers, there is some way to have more performance?, for example, disable the proot clipboard with the host, or things done,?

I was trying to install this heroku-cli package from yay - https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/heroku-cli

yay -S heroku-cli

During the installation at the end , i got the following error and the yay installer aborted

yay version -10.0.4-1

I tried installing same package on my laptop running on arch linux system but i didn't got any error , its very less likely that this is actually a upstream or heroku-cli package issue

How to run aarch command without login directly from Termux?

TermuxA

Unable to login into Termuxarch proot as a non root user

Edit - After further testing i can conclude that it had to do with zsh/oh my zsh , nothing wrong in Termuxarch as such. I have fixed it as of now

Gnome desktop environment does not run in ArchLinux and Termux

GNome desktop environment is very popular among many Linux users. It is attractive, contain many special Gnome applications, it even contain development environments. Unfortunately, Gnome-session refuses to run on Termux, Proot and no matter which Linux distro you would use. My goal is to make Gnome-session to run. Somebody who is very advanced have incorporated special Opengl extension for TIgervnc. So may be, that it would help. Unfortunately, simply running gnome-session without 3D acceleration check do not help. Do you think, that GNome programmers would have A good will to recode GNome-session and dependent components of Gnome, so it would support VNC protocol?
Since I AM getting some bug that this kind of session is not supported when running gnome-session in combination with tigervnc. I have also tested it with XVFB and X11-vnc. But with no results.

Any help would be very welcomed. Since Gnome is very popular desktop environment. And fortunately, experts who are concentrated around ArchLinux have precompiled many GNome packages for AARCH64 architecture.
Gnome is official desktop environment for Orca screen reader.
We allready have very professionally functioning shared memory support thanks to MR Rausty and others. /dev/shm emulation support many shared memory operations. Including The shared memory operations, which is being used by Xvnc Tigervnc app.

Add a option to start termuxarch with sharedtmp

Related: #25
Related: termux/proot-distro#48

Implementing shared tmp could be able to run graphical applications in termux arch.

if this is not possible, answer the issue.

QEMU

Hello! Thanks for this amazing project. However I was wondering if there is any way to get more performance out of qemu? Via more cores or something?

sudoers file is apparently absent in the latest TermuxArch v2.0.519

I just updated TermuxArch an hour ago to latest TermuxArch v2.0.519 ( at the time of opening this issue )
After installation got completed , i tried to add my user but it returned an error saying /etc/sudoers file is absent.
I checked it using file manager too and indeed it was absent . This issue didn't existed 2 days back , i think something changed very recently could have caused it . Probably you can fix this thing pretty quickly as its a minor issue.

Here's the whole error

Real root

For users with rooted phones, why not use actual root instead of proot? Wouldn't it be better to avoid the weaknesses of proot?

TermuxArch after Android 10 changes

I have a simple question.
Will TermuxArch still work after the changes that will occur after termux changes to android 10?
