A neat Bash script to build/install/update Enlightenment on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS.
Please see the script comments for hints and additional information.
Note
It may be useful to keep a record of the pre-existing system status before proceeding with the installation.
Check out our backup script.
Before using elluminate, you may need to install the git and sound-icons packages on your system if they aren't already there.
Open a terminal window and type in the following:
sudo apt install git sound-icons
Next, clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/batden/elluminate.git .elluminate
This creates a new hidden folder named .elluminate in your home directory.
Copy the elluminate.sh file from the new .elluminate folder to your download folder.
Navigate to the download folder and make the script executable:
chmod +x elluminate.sh
Then, execute the script with:
./elluminate.sh
To run it again later, open a terminal and simply type:
elluminate.sh
Tip
Use auto-completion: Type ell and press the Tab key.
That's it.
You can uninstall Enlightenment and related applications from your computer at any time.
See extinguish.sh.
