I made StumpWM work on Debian! All it took was:
- Installing package for StumpWM.
- Forcefully removing package for clx with dpkg.
- Building StumpWM from source w/ ql (surprisingly easy!)
- And replacing Debian-provided binary with the compilation result.
That was tough, but fun. And I like how anarchic Debian is, with any binary replaceable and patchable in place!
Huge thanks to npub1ay2eq5lxqmr70k0aklueqtgf8ttky6e85umtw4lctrshrg0stu3qkgyhap (npub1ay2…yhap) for the pointer on old clx version! Maybe I should contribute a newer one to Debian? 🤔
