This repo makes modified versiones of some Archlinux packages, these are intended for AppImages to reduce final size:
-
llvm-libs-mini
andllmv-libs-nano
, smaller versions oflibLLVM.so
which is a 130+ MiB library that Archlinux compiles with support for a lot of architectures (arm
,aarch64
,risv
, etc), the mini version should be a drop in replacment that is unlikely to cause any issue, while the nano version only ships the host target (x86_64
oraarch64
) +AMDGPU
. -
iculess versions of
libxml2
andqt6-base
, normally these packages depend on a 30 MiB libicudata lib that is rarely needed, using them gets rid of said library. -
ffmpeg-mini
which mainly removes linking to libx265.so, which is a 20 MiB library that is rarely needed, using it gets rid of said library. -
opus-nano
I have no idea why Archlinux makes this lib 5 MiB when both ubuntu and alpine make it <500 KiB -
mesa-mini
which makes several packages (mesa
,vulkan-{radeon, intel, etc}
) ~30% smaller.
