Manjaro ARM Alpha5 for PinePhone!

[spikerguy]

SMS messages didn't appear in the messaging app, so I have no idea if they send/receive properly

that said, wifi works perfectly which is ahead of UBPorts.

the app store is incredibly limited, but it gave me less trouble than the ones for UBPorts and ArchARM. I've also never ran KDE before, so some of the categories seemed to be in another language lol

from the sound properties it seemed that it has the same issue that Phosh has right now, where you need to manually toggle the audio to make a phone call, or am I wrong? I have no cell reception at my home so I honestly couldn't test it.

also, there's pacman. I severely miss pacman. that reminds me, I tried to use a PKGBUILD to manually build an app to test (a facebook messaging app), and when I tried to makepkg it complained that there was no fakeroot environment.

You need to install all the pkgs needed to build pkg. 

Sudo pacman -S base-devel 

This will get you all the pkgs like fakeroot etc.
